The University of Texas at Austin received a $195,360 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075). The grant supports an experimental investigation into syllabification in an unspecified language through a series of five native speaker experiments. The first four experiments will track speech production movements through acoustic and airflow measurements to determine which sounds belong to the same syllable based on temporal coordination. The fifth experiment will examine tongue slip errors produced under time pressure to provide further evidence of syllabic organization. The research aims to provide objective evidence on syllabification in this language and contribute to educational resources and research capacity development in the region. The award period is from July 15, 2023 through June 30, 2025. As the prime awardee, the University of Texas at Austin will directly conduct the proposed research.
