Bilingual word recognition in a sentence context [PDF]
, 2012 This article provides an overview of bilingualism research on visual word recognition in isolation and in sentence context. Many studies investigating the processing of words out-of-context have shown that lexical representations from both languages are ...

Alpha Phase Determines Successful Lexical Decision in Noise [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2015 Psychophysical target detection has been shown to be modulated by slow oscillatory brain phase. However, thus far, only low-level sensory stimuli have been used as targets. The current human electroencephalography (EEG) study examined the influence of neural oscillatory phase on a lexical-decision task performed for stimuli embedded in noise.

The effects of age-of-acquisition and frequency-of-occurrence in visual word recognition: Further evidence from the Dutch language [PDF]
, 2000 It has been claimed that the frequency eOEect in visual word naming is an artefact of age-of-acquisition: Words are named faster not because they are encountered more often in texts, but because they have been acquired earlier. In a series of experiments

Repetition priming in an auditory lexical decision task: Effects of lexical status [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 1997 The effect of lexical status on the time course of repetition priming was examined in an auditory lexical decision task. Words and nonwords were repeated at lags of 0, 1, 4, and 8 items (Experiment 1A) and 0, 2, 4, and 8 items (Experiment 1B). The pattern of repetition effects differed for words and nonwords in that repetition priming for nonwords at ...

The Missing Link between Morphemic Assemblies and Behavioral Responses:a Bayesian Information-Theoretical model of lexical processing [PDF]
, 2006 We present the Bayesian Information-Theoretical (BIT) model of lexical processing: A mathematical model illustrating a novel approach to the modelling of language processes. The model shows how a neurophysiological theory of lexical processing relying on

Contextual diversity, not word frequency, determines word-naming and lexical decision times [PDF]
Word frequency is an important predictor of word-naming and lexical decision times. It is, however, confounded with contextual diversity, the number of contexts in which a word has been seen.

Phonological similarity effects in Cantonese word recognition [PDF]
, 1995 Two lexical decision experiments in Cantonese are described in which the recognition of spoken target words as a function of phonological similarity to a preceding prime is investigated.

, 2002 This paper presents an evaluation of an ensemble--based system that participated in the English and Spanish lexical sample tasks of Senseval-2. The system combines decision trees of unigrams, bigrams, and co--occurrences into a single classifier.

Automatic vigilance for negative words in lexical decision and naming : comment on Larsen, Mercer, and Balota (2006) [PDF]
, 2008 An automatic vigilance hypothesis states that humans preferentially attend to negative stimuli, and this attention to negative valence disrupts the processing of other stimulus properties.

When semantics aids phonology: a processing advantage for iconic word forms in aphasia [PDF]
, 2015 Iconicity is the non-arbitrary relation between properties of a phonological form and semantic content (e.g. “moo”, “splash”). It is a common feature of both spoken and signed languages, and recent evidence shows that iconic forms confer an advantage ...
