    Abstract

    ![CDATA[We investigated how repeating metrical templates, i.e., stress priming, and the contextual predictability of stress affect behavior in a word naming task. We measured naming latencies and the phonetic duration of words produced under four different conditions (congruent stress, low predictability; congruent stress, high predictability; incongruent stress, low predictability; incongruent stress, high predictability). Results showed strong effects of metrical predictability on both naming latency and word duration but no effect of stress congruency on either variable. The relevance of these results to theories of speech production and phonological representation are discussed.]]
