Iconic gestures prime words: Comparison of Priming Effects when Gestures are Presented Alone and when They are Accompanying Speech

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
Previous studies have shown that iconic gestures presented in an isolated manner prime visually presented semantically related words. Since gestures and speech are almost always produced together, this study examined whether iconic gestures accompanying

Listeners normalize speech for contextual speech rate even without an explicit recognition task

open access: yes, 2019
Speech can be produced at different rates. Listeners take this rate variation into account by normalizing vowel duration for contextual speech rate: An ambiguous Dutch word /m?t/ is perceived as short /mAt/ when embedded in a slow context, but long /ma:t/

Orthographic vs. phonological irregularity in lexical decision [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 1983
This experiment investigates whether the influence of spelling-to-sound correspondence on lexical decision may be due to the visual characteristics of irregular words rather than to irregularities in their phonological correspondence. Lexical decision times to three types of word were measured: words with both irregular orthography and spelling-to ...

When semantics aids phonology: a processing advantage for iconic word forms in aphasia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Iconicity is the non-arbitrary relation between properties of a phonological form and semantic content (e.g. “moo”, “splash”). It is a common feature of both spoken and signed languages, and recent evidence shows that iconic forms confer an advantage ...

Does Richness Lose its Luster? Effects of Extensive Practice on Semantic Richness in Visual Word Recognition

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012
Previous studies have reported facilitatory effects of semantic richness on word recognition (e.g., Yap, Pexman, Wellsby, Hargreaves & Huff, 2012).

A broad-coverage distributed connectionist model of visual word recognition [PDF]

Extending weighting models with a term quality measure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
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.

Lexical decision and eye tracking in the reading of words with prefixes, roots, and suffixes with transposed letters

open access: yesSigno, 2018
The present work intends to contribute to advance the debate between the holistic and decompositional models of morphological processing, investigating the impact of the transposition of letters in the processing of words.

Automatic vigilance for negative words in lexical decision and naming : comment on Larsen, Mercer, and Balota (2006) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
An automatic vigilance hypothesis states that humans preferentially attend to negative stimuli, and this attention to negative valence disrupts the processing of other stimulus properties.
