Lexical decision and priming in Alzheimer's disease

Neuropsychologia, 1988
Patients with probable Alzheimer's disease (AD) were no faster at making lexical decisions to targets preceded by a semantic prime than to those preceded by an unrelated prime, in contrast to the facilitatory effect of semantic primes for controls. Fewer errors were made by both subject groups on the targets that followed related items, indicating the ...

Sequential dependencies in the lexical decision task

Psychological Research, 1997
Two experiments addressed whether response latency in a trial of the lexical decision task is independent of the lexical status of the item presented in the previous trial. In Exp. 1, it was found that both word and nonword responses were significantly slower when the previous trial had involved a nonword than when it had involved a word. In Exp.

The processing advantage and disadvantage for homophones in lexical decision tasks.

Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition, 2013
Studies using the lexical decision task with English stimuli have demonstrated that homophones are responded to more slowly than nonhomophonic controls.

Lexical decisions with homophones and homonyms

Current Psychological Research & Reviews, 1975
In two experiments homophones, homonyms, and control words were presented aurally in a lexical decision task. Response times for homophones were significantly faster than those for homonyms and control words, whereas the latter two did not differ. It was concluded that lexical decision times do not provide evidence for multiple entries in the internal ...

Lexical decision and the number of morphemes and affixes

Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, 2013
There has been a considerable amount of research looking at the effects of both syllable number and syllable frequency on lexical decision and word naming times. Recently, there has also been an increased interest in morphological variables, but there have been no large scale studies that have examined the role of the number of morphemes in lexical ...

How to say "no" to a nonword: a leaky competing accumulator model of lexical decision.

Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition, 2012
We describe a leaky competing accumulator (LCA) model of the lexical decision task that can be used as a response/decision module for any computational model of word recognition.

Priming by pictures in lexical decision

Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1984
Cross-form priming of words by pictures was compared to within-form priming of words by words in a lexical decision task. For prime—target pairs containing repetitions of a concept or semantically related concepts, pictures provided priming of word targets in magnitudes at least as large as the priming provided by words themselves.

Pseudohomophone priming in lexical decision is not fragile in a sparse lexical neighborhood.

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2012
In lexical decision, to date few studies in English have found a reliable pseudohomophone priming advantage with orthographically similar primes (the klip-plip effect; Frost, Ahissar, Gotesman, & Tayeb, 2003; see Rastle & Brysbaert, 2006, for a review).

The lexical decision task as a measure of L2 lexical proficiency

EUROSLA Yearbook, 2006
Prior applications of the lexical decision task in second language research have either examined performance accuracy (Meara and Buxton 1987) or speed of response to familiar items (Segalowitz and Segalowitz 1993). This paper examines how well the two measures together serve to discriminate among between-group levels of proficiency and within-group ...
