Discrimination in lexical decision. [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS 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 ...

When orthography is not enough: the effect of lexical stress in lexical decision. [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2015
Three lexical decision experiments were carried out in Italian, in order to verify if stress dominance (the most frequent stress type) and consistency (the proportion and number of existent words sharing orthographic ending and stress pattern) had an ...

Whole body lexical decision [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Letters, 2011
When a person standing upright raises an arm on cue, muscles of the left and right sides of the body exhibit changes prior to and specific to the responding arm. We had standing participants perform a visual lexical decision task ("is this letter string a word?"), responding yes by raising one arm and no by raising the other arm.

How Noisy is Lexical Decision? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers 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). Although these models estimate random measurement error for RTs, considering only correct trials implicitly

Lexical Decision in Children: Sublexical Processing or Lexical Search? [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2012
Length effects in the lexical decision latencies of children might indicate that children rely on sublexical processing and essentially approach the task as a naming task. We examined this possibility by means of the effects of neighbourhood size and articulatory suppression on lexical decision performance.

Cross-Linguistic Influence in the Bilingual Mental Lexicon: Evidence of Cognate Effects in the Phonetic Production and Processing of a Vowel Contrast. [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Three-step priming in lexical decision [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2002
In two experiments, we investigated mediated two-step priming (e.g., from LION to STRIPES via TIGER) and three-step priming (e.g., from MANE to STRIPES via LION and TIGER). Experiment 1 showed robust two-step priming in the double lexical decision task.

Interhemispheric connectivity during lateralized lexical decision [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Brain Mapping, 2018
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.

Auditory perception modulated by word reading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Theories of embodied cognition positing that sensorimotor areas are indispensable during language comprehension are supported by neuroimaging and behavioural studies.

Effect of mood on lexical decisions [PDF]

open access: yesBulletin of the Psychonomic Society, 1983
This experiment investigated the effects of induced elation and depression on lexical decision times for positive, negative, and neutral words. Contrary to prediction, decision times for mood-congruent words were not faster than decision times for mood-incongruent words.
