Resumen:	L2 learners need to detect differences between native and target language sounds in order to categorize them, and thus perceive and produce them, accurately. The current high variability perceptual training study explored the effect of identification and discrimination training on the perceived similarity between Spanish and English vowels and on the ability to identify and discriminate target English sounds. Cross-linguistic similarity was assessed by means of perceptual assimilation tasks. The results showed that a 6-session perceptual training regime was insufficient to affect crosslinguistic similarity relations, as no consistent change in perceived similarity between L1 and L2 vowels was observed from pretest to posttest. Despite this, training was effective in improving identification and discrimination of L2 vowels. Further, posttest scores were replicated four months later, showing long-term effects of perceptual training on L2 perception. Results are discussed interms of the relationship between cross-linguistic similarity and categorization of L2 sounds.
