Resum
Previous phonetic training research has yet to provide evidence of its effectiveness in
modifying L2 learners’ inaccurate phonological representations in perception and production.
In addition, no study to date has explored whether all the words that constitute learners’ L2
lexicon are equally malleable and susceptible to improvement. The study we propose in this
paper sets out to test, within a high-variability phonetic training (HVPT) paradigm involving
AX discrimination, an identification, and immediate repetition tasks, i) the malleability of the
phonological representation of L2 words targeting the difficult vowel contrast /æ/-/ʌ/. And ii)
potential differential effects of training participants with lexical (words) or non-lexical
(nonwords) materials. To compare the malleability of previously-established and newlyestablished
phonological representations participants are asked to complete a series of wordlearning
tasks for the latter. Afterwards, they are trained on the target vowel contrast and tested
on its perception and production in both word types (i.e.: old and new). To test the differential
effects of training materials participants were randomly assigned to lexical or non-lexical
training groups. Hypothesized results will be provided based on the evidence that the literature
has provided.
