Abstract
► Do listeners use prosody to find hierarchical structure in artificial speech? ► We pitted cues in the prosodic hierarchy against transitional probabilities. ► Italian-speakers segmented the streams hierarchically. ► Prosody is a stronger cue to hierarchical structure than transitional-probabilities. ► Prosody can be used to find hierarchical structure in speech.
