Resumo: In this study, we investigate the efectiveness of perceptual training, administered to Argentinean learners, in the perception and production of word-initial voiceless stops in English. 24 participants were divided into 3 groups: (i) Group 1, which participated in 3 training sessions; (ii) Group 2, which, besides performing the same training tasks, was explicitly informed about the target item; (iii) Group 3 (control). All participants took part in a pre-test, a post-test and a delayed post-test. In all these tests, they participated in a consonant identiication task and took part in a read-aloud task. Our results show a signiicant increase of both experimental groups in identiication. As for production, Group 2 exhibited a signiicant increase in /p/ and /t/ ater training. hese results are indicative of the efectiveness of perceptual training tasks in helping learners focus on Voice Onset Time.
