Native Japanese speakers with a high level of English proficiency (JH), those with a low level of English proficiency (JL) and native English speakers (ES) performed a word spotting task and detected CVN (e.g., pen) targets and CVNC (e.g., pend) targets inbisyllabic non-words either in a context with clear boundaries (e.g., pinkfem) or in a context with ambiguous boundaries (e.g., pinklem). The results revealed that the ES and the Japanese speakers responded to CVNC target words faster and more accurately than to CVN targets both in Experiment 1 and Experiment 2. They syllabified the target words to identify them while being affected by the Possible Word Constraints (PWC). In addition, ES did not respond to non-words with /?/ to detect CVN words. The differences of the nasal contexts affected the responses by ES and JH.}, pages = {1--20}, title = {Effects of L1 Phonotactic Constraints and Orthography on L2 Word Segmentation}, volume = {4}, year = {2023}, yomi = {カタヤマ, タマミ} }
