Perception of reduced forms in English by non-native users of English.
Article in Frontiers in psychology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The article reports the results of a study on the perception of reduced forms by non-native users of English. It tests three hypotheses: (i) reduced forms with context are recognized more accurately and faster than reduced forms without context; (ii) gradient reduction is perceived less robustly than the categorical one; and (iii) subjects with musical background perceive reduced forms better than those without. An E-Prime study on 102 Polish learners of English was implemented, comparing participants' accuracy and reaction times with a control group of 14 native speakers. The study was corpus-based and used 287 reduced forms from a corpus of Lancashire. The results indicate that (i) lexical context and phone density significantly affect perception, (ii) the category of reduction process (gradient or categorical) is irrelevant, and (iii) musical background only partially impacts non-native perception.
