Test responses of listeners from 27 countries who were tested over a period of a year and a half on several versions of word spelling alphabets are examined to determine patterns of intraensemble confusion. On the word level, confusion seems to hinge on the accented vowel, and these confusions are stratified according to the articulatory position of the vowel. Greater discrimination for front vowels than for back is noted, as well as diminishing intraensemble confusion from high-to-low-articulatory position. A method for computing confusion vectors is presented along with a rationale for increasing the phonemic stability of any particular set of words. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
