Functional hemispheric specialization in processing phonemic and prosodic auditory changes in neonates

Functional hemispheric specialization in processing phonemic and prosodic auditory changes in neonates

This study focuses on the early cerebral base of speech perception by examining functional lateralization in neonates for processing segmental and suprasegmental features of speech. For this purpose, auditory evoked responses of full-term neonates to phonemic and prosodic contrasts were measured in...
