These materials were adapted from Experiment 1 of Payne, B., Lavan, N., Knight, S., & McGettigan, C. (2021). Perceptual prioritization of self‐associated voices. British Journal of Psychology, 112(3), 585-610, which were available as Open Materials: https://app.gorilla.sc/openmaterials/45935.
For Experiment 1, we adapted this paradigm for use with new recordings of Scottish male speakers.
For Experiment 2, we included the particpants's own voice in the task alongside two of the (English male) speakers from Payne et al's Experiment 1. This experiment involve two phases - the first phase captured participants' audio recordings, which were then used in Phase 2.

Built with Experiment
This involves a perceptual matching task where participants are assigned external voices as belonging to "You", "Friend", and "Stranger", adapted from Payne et al (2021)'s Experiment 1.
This experiment involves a perceptual matching paradigm where participants are assigned Scottish voices in the three roles, with two auditory tokens of "hello" for each speaker. After a familiarisation phase, participants then hear a voice and are presented with an on-screen identity label. Their task is to determine whether the identify of the voice is a MATCH or MISMATCH. The main experiment comprises three blocks with 72 trials. Six different versions of the main task exist, counterbalancing the three speakers to each combination of voice association.
Participants are then given a short demographic questionnaire to complete.

Built with Experiment
In this task, participants completed an audio recording task in order to provide tokens of "hello" which could be spliced and used in Phase 2. The audio recording task was adapted from Sullivan (2022) available from: https://app.gorilla.sc/openmaterials/417553. We then used these recordings in Phase 2, so that participants could complete a perceptual task involving their own voice.

Built with Experiment
This involves a perceptual matching task where participants's own voice is assigned to either "You", "Friend", and "Stranger" with two external voices in the other roles. Participants are given an "own voice" test to see if they recognise the voices recordings they provided in Phase 1 before they move on to the familiarisation phase which assigns an identity to each voice (their own, plus two external voices).
After a familiarisation phase, participants then hear a voice and are presented with an on-screen identity label. Their task is to determine whether the identify of the voice is a MATCH or MISMATCH. The main experiment comprises three blocks with 72 trials. Six different versions of the main task exist, counterbalancing the three speakers (participant, and two external voices) to each combination of voice association.
Participants are then given a short demographic questionnaire to complete.
