...Alvarado Road, Suite 200, San Diego, CA 92120 (e-mail: kemmorey@mail.sdsu.edu). The perceptual loop theory of self-monitoring posits that auditory speech output is parsed by the comprehension system (=-=Levelt, 1989-=-; Postma, 2000). According to this theory, a centralized monitor is located in the conceptual processing system and receives input from both an inner (prearticulatory) loop and an outer (auditory) loo...

...nel vision produced signs within an even more restricted signing space when conversing in a dialogue. We speculate that this additional reduction in signing space may result from a form of alignment (=-=Pickering & Garrod, 2004-=-), in which both participants in the dialogue align with respect to the size of signing space. That is, the normally sighted signer must sign within a restricted space near the face in order for the s...

...rentially on proprioceptive monitoring. The fact that speakers detect fewer errors during mouthed speech than during voiced speech indicates that they do not rely solely on proprioceptive monitoring (=-=Postma & Noordanus, 1996-=-). Auditory feedback provides essential information about acoustic properties of self-produced speech that is not available through proprioception, such as voicing or nasalization. Postma (2000) hypot...

Our results also provide support for psycholinguistic models that posit a role for proprioceptive feedback for monitoring speech (e.g., =-=Lackner & Tuller, 1979-=-). It is likely, however, that signers and speakers rely differentially on proprioceptive monitoring. The fact that speakers detect fewer errors during mouthed speech than during voiced speech indicat...

...t the hands from continually disappearing and reappearing within the visual field. Deaf signers are particularly sensitive to objects moving in and out of the visual periphery (Bavelier et al., 2000; =-=Bosworth & Dobkins, 2001-=-), and therefore, those with tunnel vision might adjust the size of signing space to avoid such visually distracting input. However, recently Arena, Finlay, and Woll (2007) found that normally sighted...

...inating the visual periphery reduces the size of signing space (particularly within the vertical dimension), but completely removing visual feedback does not alter the size of signing space (see also =-=Siegel, Clay, & Naeve, 1992-=-). These data suggest that visual feedback plays at least some role during sign production. A potential reason for signing near the face is to prevent the hands from continually disappearing and reapp...
