This study investigated the relationship between perception and production of Japanese accents by native speakers of Chinese. The research consisted of perception and production experiments, whose subjects were first year students of Japanese. In the perception experiment, pseudowords were used and in the production experiment, unknown words were used. The results demonstrated that there was a strong correlation between perception and production of accent in Japanese, and in order to produce Japanese accent appropriately, the ability to differentiate accent by perception is required.
