Research Interests
Dr. Van Engen’s research is directed at understanding human speech perception and processing, with a focus on the sensory and cognitive mechanisms that support successful communication in challenging listening conditions. She is guided by particular concerns for 1) how linguistic experience shapes speech perception and processing and 2) how signal-intrinsic (e.g., accent) and signal-extrinsic factors (e.g., noise) interact to modulate the success of communication.
