Abstract
![CDATA[Infants’ perceptual sensitivity changes during the second half of the first year of life from distinguishing virtually all speech contrasts to those within the native phonemic inventory. This is referred to perceptual reorganization (PR), when infants start to perceive the relevant contrasts for the native language and lose their sensitivity to most non-native contrasts.]]
