Dr. Annie C. Tremblay obtained her PhD in Second Language Acquisition at the University of Hawaii in 2007. Her research investigates bilingual speech perception and spoken word recognition, with focus on the processing of prosody, lexical stress, and other suprasegmental phenomena. Her most recent research, funded by the National Science Foundation, investigates whether the cue-weighting theory of speech perception can provide a strong theoretical framework for understanding the listening difficulties that second-language learners encounter with lexical stress, and for developing training stimuli and methods to enhance the perceptual learning of lexical stress.
