Scholars have extensively investigated the effectiveness of high variability phonetic training (HVPT), that is, identification and discrimination of second language speech sounds produced by multiple speakers followed by trial-by-trial feedback. Building on the notion of incidental and multimodal learning in cognitive psychology (e.g., Lim & Holt, 2011), we developed a new, HVPT-based videogame paradigm in which participants aimed to shoot clay targets as fast as possible while being guided to learn sound cues as a by-product of planned learning. Focusing on the speech acquisition of 58 Japanese English-as-a-foreign-language learners, the current study set out to test the pedagogical potential and limits of the incidental HVPT approach. According to the results of statistical analyses, the effectiveness of incidental HVPT can be more clearly observed if it focuses on more learnable targets (e.g., acquisition of English [æ]–[ʌ] rather than [r]–[l] contrasts) with gains being more generalizable from trained to new speakers’ voices and from perception to production dimensions.

附带和多模式高变异语音训练：潜力、限制和未来方向

学者们广泛研究了高可变语音训练 (HVPT) 的有效性，即识别和辨别多个说话者发出的第二语言语音，然后逐个试验反馈。基于认知心理学中偶然和多模态学习的概念（例如，Lim & Holt，2011），我们开发了一种新的、基于 HVPT 的视频游戏范式，参与者旨在尽可能快地射击粘土目标，同时被引导学习声音线索是计划学习的副产品。本研究着眼于 58 名日本英语作为外语学习者的语音习得，旨在测试附带 HVPT 方法的教学潜力和局限性。根据统计分析的结果，
