Working Memory Modulates Auditory Perceptual Sensitivity During Speech Planning

Key Points

• The research aims to explore how working memory impacts auditory representations during speech planning.
• Investigated the relationship between working memory and auditory perception
• Analyzed how vowel maintenance in memory affects speech outcomes
• Examined the modulation of speech systems via auditory target representations.
• Findings indicate that maintaining a vowel enhances auditory sensitivity
• Demonstrated a direct influence of working memory on speech planning outcomes
• Revealed that auditory representations are shaped by working memory processes.
