    The study tested whether different accents affect the McGurk effect, which is the interaction between hearing and vision in speech perception. Subjects viewed videos of people saying "BA" while the audio track played "BA", "FA", or "GA" spoken with different accents. The majority of subjects heard "VA" for the Mexican accent track, responses varied for the American accent track, and most heard "BA" for the English accent track. This shows that accents, especially unfamiliar ones, can influence the visual interpretation of speech.
