--Apple-Mail-4-394719690 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Dear List Members, I've been trawling over the existing literature on auditory (sensory) =20= versus motor theories of speech perception, and have surprisingly not =20= seen very much in the way of studies on the effect of congenital =20 muteness but preserved hearing and the development of speech =20 perception skills. This seems a good test of the validity of the =20 motor theory to my mind. I would be most grateful to any pointers of =20= relevant studies conducted that I may have missed. Many thanks in advance.
