\subsection{Stimuli}  For each one-feature-different pair of French obstruents (e.g., /p/\textasciitilde/b/), a series of trisyllabic CVCVCV nonwords was created in the following way: For each C position in the CVCVCV word, two nonwords were created using a given filler vowel (V positions were filled with either /a/, /i/, or /u/), such that one of the nonwords contained one segment of the pair and the other nonword contained the other segment. The other two C positions were filled by one of each of the segments. For a segment pair /p/\textasciitilde/b/, for example, a nonword pair was created for each C position (initial, medial, final). An “initial” pair would look like /papaba/\textasciitilde/bapaba/ for the filler vowel /a/. /a/, where positions $C_2$ and $C_3$ contain one of the segments, but do not vary across the pair.
