Discrimination in lexical decision. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 In this study we present a novel set of discrimination-based indicators of language processing derived from Naive Discriminative Learning (ndl) theory. We compare the effectiveness of these new measures with classical lexical-distributional measures-in ...

Effects of Emotional Experience in Lexical Decision [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 Previous research has examined the effects of emotional experience (i.e., the ease with which words evoke emotion information) in semantic categorization, word naming, and Stroop tasks (Moffat, Siakaluk, Sidhu, & Pexman, 2015; Newcombe, Campbell ...

Examining interhemispheric processing and task demand in lexical decision-making: insights from lateralized visual field paradigm [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 This study aimed to investigate the influence of task demand on the uni−/bi-hemispheric processing of lexical decision-making. Two types of nonwords were used in parafoveal and foveal lexical decision tasks (LDTs) to manipulate task demand. In Experiment

How Noisy is Lexical Decision? [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 Lexical decision is one of the most frequently used tasks in word recognition research. Theoretical conclusions are typically derived from a linear model on the reaction times (RTs) of correct word-trials only (e.g., linear regression and ANOVA ...

Unfolding visual lexical decision in time. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Visual lexical decision is a classical paradigm in psycholinguistics, and numerous studies have assessed the so-called "lexicality effect" (i.e., better performance with lexical than non-lexical stimuli).

Can a lexical decision task predict efficiency in the judgment of ambiguous sentences? [PDF]
Psicologia: Reflexão e Crítica, 2018 The lexicon plays a fundamental role in reading, but little is known about how it influences reading efficiency. Thus, this study seeks to identify which lexical factors in a lexical decision task are relevant in a semantic decision test.

Cross-linguistic influence in the bilingual mental lexicon: evidence of cognate effects in the phonetic production and processing of a vowel contrast [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 The present study examines cognate effects in the phonetic production and processing of the Catalan back mid-vowel contrast (/o/-/ɔ/) by 24 early and highly proficient Spanish-Catalan bilinguals in Majorca (Spain). Participants completed a picture-naming

Interhemispheric connectivity during lateralized lexical decision. [PDF]
Hum Brain Mapp, 2019 AbstractThe well‐established right visual field (RVF‐lh) advantage in word recognition is commonly attributed to the typical left hemisphere dominance in language; words presented to the LVF‐rh are processed less efficiently due to the need for transcallosal transfer from the right to left hemisphere.

Effect of schooling in auditory lexical decision [PDF]
Dementia & Neuropsychologia, 2008 The task of lexical decision demands the functioning of the phonological loop to identify and discriminate strings of sounds and lexical knowledge to identify if this string can be taken as a real word or pseudo-word.
