實(shí)驗(yàn)室音系學(xué)是音系學(xué)的一種研究方法，強(qiáng)調(diào)音系理論和科學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)之間的協(xié)同作用，包括人類語(yǔ)言的實(shí)驗(yàn)室研究和音系模式的獲取和生產(chǎn)力的實(shí)驗(yàn)。實(shí)驗(yàn)室音系學(xué)的核心目標(biāo)是“通過(guò)跨學(xué)科的方法，促進(jìn)跨學(xué)科的學(xué)術(shù)交流，將語(yǔ)言學(xué)與心理學(xué)、電子工程、計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)和其他領(lǐng)域聯(lián)系起來(lái)，從而理解人類語(yǔ)言的認(rèn)知和物理方面之間的關(guān)系”。該領(lǐng)域的重要先驅(qū)包括Kenneth N. Stevens和Gunnar Fant關(guān)于語(yǔ)音產(chǎn)生的聲學(xué)理論的工作，Ilse Lehiste關(guān)于韻律和語(yǔ)調(diào)的工作，以及Peter Ladefoged關(guān)于類型變化和數(shù)據(jù)獲取方法的工作。目前實(shí)驗(yàn)室音韻學(xué)的研究主要依靠測(cè)量音韻學(xué)和自反音韻學(xué)理論，以及探索性數(shù)據(jù)分析的統(tǒng)計(jì)方法。實(shí)驗(yàn)室音系學(xué)特別與實(shí)驗(yàn)室音系學(xué)協(xié)會(huì)聯(lián)系在一起，該協(xié)會(huì)的成立是為了推廣這種方法。珍妮特·皮爾亨伯特、瑪麗·貝克曼、帕特里夏·基廷和d·羅伯特·拉德是與實(shí)驗(yàn)室音系學(xué)相關(guān)的研究人員之一，他們共同撰寫(xiě)了一篇討論這種方法的論文。[4]中國(guó)英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)網(wǎng)站其他著名的實(shí)驗(yàn)室音系學(xué)家包括凱瑟琳·布勞曼、詹妮弗·s·科爾、路易斯·戈德斯坦、茱莉亞·赫什伯格和伊恩·馬迪森。

Laboratory phonology is an approach to phonology that emphasizes the synergy between phonological theory and scientific experiments, including laboratory studies of human speech and experiments on the acquisition and productivity of phonological patterns. The central goal of laboratory phonology is "gaining an understanding of the relationship between the cognitive and physical aspects of human speech"[1] through the use of an interdisciplinary approach that promotes scholarly exchange across disciplines, bridging linguistics with psychology, electrical engineering, and computer science, and other fields.[2][3] Important antecedents of the field include work by Kenneth N. Stevens and Gunnar Fant on the acoustic theory of speech production, Ilse Lehiste's work on prosody and intonation, and Peter Ladefoged's work on typological variation and methods for data capture. Current research in laboratory phonology draws heavily on the theories of metrical phonology and autosegmental phonology, and on the statistical methods of exploratory data analysis.Laboratory phonology is particularly connected with the Association for Laboratory Phonology, which was founded to promote the approach. Among the researchers associated with laboratory phonology are Janet Pierrehumbert, Mary Beckman, Patricia Keating and D. Robert Ladd, who co-authored a paper discussing the approach. [4] Other prominent laboratory phonologists include Catherine Browman, Jennifer S. Cole, Louis Goldstein, Julia Hirschberg and Ian Maddieson.
