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

Associative and repetition priming with the repeated masked prime technique: No priming found [PDF]
, 2008 Wentura and Frings (2005) reported evidence of subliminal categorical priming on a lexical decision task, using a new method of visual masking in which the prime string consisted of the prime word flanked by random consonants and random letter masks ...

EDITOR: an Edit-Based Transformer with Repositioning for Neural Machine Translation with Soft Lexical Constraints [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 We introduce an Edit-Based Transformer with Repositioning (EDITOR), which makes sequence generation flexible by seamlessly allowing users to specify preferences in output lexical choice. Building on recent models for non-autoregressive sequence generation (Gu et al., 2019), EDITOR generates new sequences by iteratively editing hypotheses.

Nonword facilitation in a lexical decision task. [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 1985 It has been reported in previous experiments that in a lexical decision task, sentence contexts facilitate decisions for nonword targets relative to a neutral context condition (e.g., Schuberth & Eimas, 1977). The present three experiments investigated possible explanations for this nonword facilitation effect, using moderately predictable sentence ...

The scope of grammatical gender in Spanish: Transference to the conceptual level
Acta Psychologica, 2021 The aim of the present study was to explore under what circumstances we could observe a transference from grammatical gender to the conceptual representation of sex in Spanish, a two-gender language. The participants performed a lexical decision task and

Modulation of additive and interactive effects in lexical decision by trial history.
Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition, 2013 Additive and interactive effects of word frequency, stimulus quality, and semantic priming have been used to test theoretical claims about the cognitive architecture of word-reading processes.

The frequency effect for pseudowords in the lexical decision task [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 2005 Four experiments were designed to investigate whether the frequency of words used to create pseudowords plays an important role in lexical decision. Computational models of the lexical decision task (e.g., the dual route cascaded model and the multiple read-out model) predict that latencies to low-frequency pseudowords should be faster than latencies ...

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

The effects of age-of-acquisition and frequency-of-occurrence in visual word recognition: Further evidence from the Dutch language [PDF]
, 2000 It has been claimed that the frequency eOEect in visual word naming is an artefact of age-of-acquisition: Words are named faster not because they are encountered more often in texts, but because they have been acquired earlier. In a series of experiments
