Short interval habituation trials paradigm. Schematic diagram of the stimulus presentation paradigm. A. Timing of scans relative to stimulus presentation, taking as the stimulus onset either the onset of speech sounds (in red) or the fourth stimulus which distinguishes deviant from standard trials (in green). B. Spectrograms of standard (STD) and deviant (DEV) stimulus trains. The primary phonetic difference between the /la/ and is the onset frequency of the third formant, circled in red.
