Can children with speech difficulties process an unfamiliar accent? [PDF]
, 2001 This study explores the hypothesis that children identified as having phonological processing problems may have particular difficulty in processing a different accent. Children with speech difficulties (n = 18) were compared with matched controls on four

Task-dependent masked priming effects in visual word recognition
Frontiers in Psychology, 2012 A method used widely to study the first 250 ms of visual word recognition is masked priming: These studies have yielded a rich set of data concerning the processes involved in recognizing letters and words.

Abstract, emotional and concrete concepts and the activation of mouth-hand effectors [PDF]
, 2018 According to embodied and grounded theories, concepts are grounded in sensorimotor systems. The majority of evidence supporting these views concerns concepts referring to objects or actions, while evidence on abstract concepts is more scarce.

Magnocellular training improves visual word recognition
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2012 Current research has shown that the magnocellular system may play a crucial role in reading deficits related to dyslexia. The current study explored the relationship between magnocellular activity and reading abilities; we examined the hypothesis that a ...

The Phonological Process with Two Patterns of Simplified Chinese Characters [PDF]
, 2013 This paper analyzed word recognition in two patterns of Chinese characters, cross referenced with word frequency. The patterns were defined as uni-part (semantic radical/component only) and bi-part (including the phonetic radical/component and the ...

Theta and alpha frequency modulation by lexical-syntactic information during a lexical decision task
Fórum Linguístico, 2015 We studied theta and alpha event related increases (ERS) and decreases (ERD) in band power associated with a prime-target mismatch at the lexical-syntactic level during a lexical decision task.

A magnetic stimulation examination of orthographic neighborhood effects in visual word recognition [PDF]
, 2003 The split-fovea theory proposes that visual word recognition is mediated by the splitting of the foveal image, with letters to the left of fixation projected to the right hemisphere (RH) and letters to the right of fixation projected to the left ...

Gragoatá, 2018 Studies about multilingual lexical access use lexical decision tasks comparing the processing of cognate and non-cognate words to investigate whether there is co-activation of languages when multilinguals process words in a single language. To understand

The mechanism underlying backward priming in a lexical decision task: Spreading activation versus semantic matching [PDF]
, 1998 Koriat (1981) demonstrated that an association from the target to a preceding prime, in the absence of an association from the prime to the target, facilitates lexical decision and referred to this effect as "backward priming".
