本次演講綱要：
I. The Influence of Sensorimotor Feedback on Pitch/Tone Learning: Evidence from Pitch-shift Paradigm
The pitch-shift paradigm in which a short, artificial change in pitch is fed back to speakers during vocalization has been used to investigate how sensory information affects the way we control our speech motor activities (Burnett, Freeland, & Larson, 1998). Pitch-shift responses (vocal response to auditory perturbation) have reflex-like properties and are hard to suppress. The pitch-shift paradigm has been used to understand the stability of internal models for tones and to reveal how internalized pitch representations are built or reshaped. In this talk, I will present how reflex-like pitch-shift responses are affected by language and music learning experiences.
II. Job-hunting: Jobs for Linguists in Industry
In the second part of the talk, I will share my experience working at Google. You may be curious of what you can do with a degree in linguistics. Knowing more about both the academia and industry will help you prepare to meet the job market head on
