Speech perception is influenced by language-specific phonological knowledge. While phonotactics has long been established to play a role, the study of how phonological alternations influence perception is still in its infancy. In this paper, we make a case for the latter by investigating the role of regressive voicing assimilation (RVA) in the perception of obstruent clusters in Emilian dialects of Italian. We provide empirical evidence from a phoneme-detection task, in which Emilian listeners reported to have heard [b] significantly more often in stimuli with a /p/ before a voiced obstruent (RVA context) than before a vowel (non-RVA context). Our experimental findings add to recent work on the influence of phonology on speech perception. In addition, we provide an explicit formalisation, which bolsters the need for a rigid distinction between phonetic, surface and underlying representation, and an explicit mapping between all three, both in the process of speech production and comprehension.

形式化语音感知：浊化同化在艾米利亚方言辅音群感知中的作用

语音感知受特定于语言的语音知识的影响。虽然语音策略早已被确定发挥作用，但语音交替如何影响感知的研究仍处于起步阶段。在本文中，我们通过调查倒退浊音同化 (RVA) 在意大利艾米利亚方言中阻塞音簇感知中的作用来为后者提供案例。我们提供了来自音素检测任务的经验证据，据报告，艾米利亚听众在浊音阻塞音（RVA 语境）前的 /p/ 刺激中比在元音前（非 RVA 语境）更频繁地听到 [b] . 我们的实验结果增加了最近关于音位学对语音感知的影响的工作。此外，我们提供了一个明确的形式化，
