Examining Letter Detector Tolerance through Offset Letter Halves: Evidence from Lexical Decision
Journal of Cognition, 2023 Neurobiological models of reading assume that the specialized detectors at the letter level (e.g., the arrays of detectors for the letter ‘n’) possess a certain degree of tolerance (e.g., Local Combination Detectors model, Dehaene et al. 2005).

Examining the validity of the Lexical Access Time Test (LEXATT2)
Vocabulary Learning and Instruction, 2012 This study aimed to investigate the validity of the Lexical Access Time Test (LEXATT2). The first step was to examine the test results to determine if it was able to differentiate between participants with different English proficiency levels.

Frequency drives lexical access in reading but not in speaking: the frequency-lag hypothesis [PDF]
, 2011 To contrast mechanisms of lexical access in production versus comprehension we compared the effects of word frequency (high, low), context (none, low constraint, high constraint), and level of English proficiency (monolingual, Spanish-English bilingual ...

The Boundaries of Lexical Innovation within a Question-Defined Semantic Cohort
Open Linguistics, 2014 This study explores the amount of lexical innovation (hapax legomena or non repeated words) during a question-led (i.e. semi spontaneous) spoken word production task. Native adult non-impaired Spanish speakers (n = 8) were asked the same question 8 times

Lexical access in bilinguals [PDF]
Bulletin of the Psychonomic Society, 1979 Spanish-English bilinguals were asked to determine whether a string of letters formed a word in their languages. Three separate conditions were used: two conditions blocked by language and a mixed-language condition. Some of the words were cognates, words with the same spelling and meaning in the two languages. There were no differences between blocked

Lexical Access in L2 Speech Production: a controlled serial search task
Ilha do Desterro, 2017 When it comes to lexical access in L2 speech production, working memory (WM) seems to play a central role as for less automatized procedures require more WM capacity to be executed (Prebianca, 2007).

Fuzzy Lexical Representations in Adult Second Language Speakers
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 We propose the fuzzy lexical representations (FLRs) hypothesis that regards fuzziness as a core property of nonnative (L2) lexical representations (LRs). Fuzziness refers to imprecise encoding at different levels of LRs and interacts with input frequency

Love is . . . an abstract word: the influence of phonological and semantic factors on verbal short-term memory in Williams syndrome [PDF]
, 2005 It has been claimed that verbal short-term memory in Williams syndrome is characterised by an over-use of phonological coding alongside a reduced contribution of lexical semantics.

A Data Structure Using Hashing and Tries For Efficient Chinese Lexical Access [PDF]
, 2005 A lexicon is needed in many applications. In the past, different structures such as tries, hash tables and their variants have been investigated for lexicon organization and lexical access. In this paper, we propose a new data structure that combines the
