Nonword facilitation in a lexical decision task. [PDF]
It has been reported in previous experiments that in a lexical decision task, sentence contexts facilitate decisions for nonword targets relative to a neutral context condition (e.g., Schuberth & Eimas, 1977). The present three experiments investigated possible explanations for this nonword facilitation effect, using moderately predictable sentence ...

The Role of the Brain's Pragmatic Language Network in Reading Comprehension in Autistic Children
ABSTRACT One of the earliest and commonly reported symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a delay in language development. Such delay may sometimes accompany deficits which can have a long‐term impact on reading comprehension. It is frequently reported that autistic children exhibit significant difficulties in pragmatics, which is the ...

The scope of grammatical gender in Spanish: Transference to the conceptual level
The aim of the present study was to explore under what circumstances we could observe a transference from grammatical gender to the conceptual representation of sex in Spanish, a two-gender language. The participants performed a lexical decision task and

Phonological similarity effects in Cantonese word recognition [PDF]
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.

Extending weighting models with a term quality measure [PDF]
Weighting models use lexical statistics, such as term frequencies, to derive term weights, which are used to estimate the relevance of a document to a query.

An Autistic “Linguatype”? Neologisms, New Words, and New Insights
ABSTRACT In this commentary, we present new ideas about autistic neologisms. This essay has two primary goals. First, we argue that an autistic predilection to form neologisms generates intriguing new hypotheses about language in autism, including the possibility that a tendency to use neologisms could be a featural element of an autistic “linguatype” (

Bilingual word recognition in a sentence context [PDF]
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 ...

Modulation of additive and interactive effects in lexical decision by trial history.
Additive and interactive effects of word frequency, stimulus quality, and semantic priming have been used to test theoretical claims about the cognitive architecture of word-reading processes.

The frequency effect for pseudowords in the lexical decision task [PDF]
Four experiments were designed to investigate whether the frequency of words used to create pseudowords plays an important role in lexical decision. Computational models of the lexical decision task (e.g., the dual route cascaded model and the multiple read-out model) predict that latencies to low-frequency pseudowords should be faster than latencies ...
