Phonology Lab basics

The UC Berkeley Phonology Lab is a research and teaching lab within the Department of Linguistics, located on level C of the classroom side of Dwinelle Hall in rooms 50 and 52.

For more on access to the Lab and its physical layout see the guide to lab spaces.

For more on our computing infrastructure see the guide to lab computing.

Need to reserve a Lab resource (space, equipment) or create appointment slots for experiment subjects? See the lab scheduling page.

Stay informed (Lab mailing list)

Anyone interested in staying up to date on Lab activities should join the Lab mailing list by emailing a request to join to Keith Johnson. List members can email the list at ucphonlab -at- lists.berkeley.edu.

Audio recording and editing

Human subjects protocols

Much of the research in the Phonology Lab involves human subjects and requires approval from the Committee for the Protection of Human Subjects. Here is some guidance on how to clear this administrative hurdle.

Speech production

Speech perception

The Lab maintains a database of volunteer subjects who have indicated an interest in participating in our experiments. You can use the database to recruit subjects. Most are undergraduates, and they speak a variety of languages. Contact Ronald Sprouse if you are denied access to this database.

Also see lab scheduling to 1) reserve subject workstations for your experiment (required); and 2) create time slots in a database that subjects can visit and sign up for your experiment (optional).

OpenSesame is the standard software package for conducting perception experiments.

Guidance for wiki editors

There are two ways to access this wiki -- read-only guest access and read/write access for Calnet authenticated users. Gaining read/write access is a two-step process. First, provide Calnet credentials when accessing the base url (contact Ronald Sprouse if access is denied), then follow the wiki's login link to log in as a wiki user. You cannot edit the wiki unless you are logged in as a wiki user; Calnet authentication is not enough.

Remember that read-only access to this wiki is provided to the public. Do not include confidential information!
