Word initial cohort model

Lindfield et al. (1999) Figure 1. Cumulative percentage of words correctly identified as wordonset durations were increased in 50 -ms increments for the three presentation conditions (onset plus prosody, onset plus duration, onset only). Note that correct prosody also includes correct word length. Error bars represent one standard error of the mean.
