Language experience during the sensitive period narrows infants’ sensory encoding of lexical tones—Music intervention reverses it
The sensitive period for phonetic learning (6∼12 months), evidenced by improved native speech processing and declined non-native speech processing, represents an early milestone in language acquisition. We examined the extent that sensory encoding of speech is altered by experience during this perio...
