A normative study of acronyms and acronym naming [PDF]

Behavior Research Methods, 2011
Acronyms are an idiosyncratic part of our everyday vocabulary. Research in word processing has used acronyms as a tool to answer fundamental questions such as the nature of the word superiority effect (WSE) or which is the best way to account for word-reading processes.
