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.

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.

The role of valence in word processing: Evidence from lexical decision and emotional Stroop tasks

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2021
It is widely accepted that the valence of a word (neutral, positive, or negative) influences lexical processing, yet data from the commonly used lexical decision and emotional Stroop tasks has yielded inconsistent findings regarding the direction of this

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.

Speaker Accent Modulates the Effects of Orthographic and Phonological Similarity on Auditory Processing by Learners of English

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
The cognate effect refers to translation equivalents with similar form between languages—i.e., cognates, such as “band” (English) and “banda” (Spanish)—being processed faster than words with dissimilar forms—such as, “cloud” and “nube.” Substantive ...
