Short Description of your Research or Creative Project (700 characters or less)

This study aimed to address whether phonetic convergence (i.e., speech imitation) and auditory imagery with respect to reading (i.e., "hearing" the voice of a text's author) are fundamentally governed by the same process — episodic encoding (c.f., Goldinger, 1998). This would provide an explanation for why we shift the way we speak when reading text written by a familiar author. The results of this study suggest that these two phenomena may actually be governed by differing processes. However, further research is needed to provide support for a more definitive conclusion.
