Research on perception of accentedness has so far focused on specific phonetic
elements and language experience, including both exposure and use, but in this
study we analyze the role of exposure to non-native accent as an isolated factor on
the perception of overall accentedness. Here 17 Catalan-dominant bilingual adults
from the conurbation of Barcelona rated the accentedness of 82 speech samples
produced by speakers born and raised in the Catalan-Spanish bilingual setting of
Barcelona. A modified version of the Bilingual Language Profile (Birdsong et al.,
2012) was used to determine language dominance, while a newly created Accent
Exposure Questionnaire was used to assess the exposure to four levels of Spanishaccented
Catalan in different contexts. Correlation tests showed a weak, nonsignificant,
negative relationship between exposure to Spanish-accented Catalan
and the perception of accentedness subtleties in the speech as measured by a more
diverse use of all the items in the rating scale (r = -.215, p = .424), being the
exposure to strongly-accented speech important in such relationship. Overall
perception of accentedness also showed a slight, negative relationship with
exposure to Spanish-accented Catalan at a non-significant level (r = -.152,
p = .573). Degree of language dominance was found to be strongly correlated with
amount of exposure to Spanish-accented Catalan at a significant level (r = -.523,
p = .038). |
