Lexical inferencing is an important strategy in reading comprehension and vocabulary learning, both in L2 and in L1. Focusing both on the effect of L1 lexicalization (i.e., the existence of lexical equivalents in learner’s L1 for a L2 word) and on that ...

This study examines whether second language (L2) learners' processing of an intonationally cued lexical contrast is facilitated when intonational cues signal a segmental contrast in the native language (L1).

Lexicality and frequency in specific language impairment: accuracy and error data from two nonword repetition tests [PDF]
Purpose: Deficits in phonological working memory and deficits in phonological processing have both been considered potential explanatory factors in Specific Language Impairment (SLI).

The role of word frequency and morpho-orthography in agreement processing
Agreement attraction in comprehension (when an ungrammatical verb is read quickly if preceded by a feature-matching local noun) is well described by a cue-based retrieval framework. This suggests a role for lexical retrieval in attraction.

Integrative priming occurs rapidly and uncontrollably during lexical processing [PDF]
Lexical priming, whereby a prime word facilitates recognition of a related target word (e.g., nurse ? doctor), is typically attributed to association strength, semantic similarity, or compound familiarity.

The effect of study-abroad experience on lexical translation among interpreting students
This study investigates the impact of study-abroad experience (SAE) on lexical translation among 50 Chinese (L1)-English (L2) interpreting students. Participants were divided into two groups based on their experience abroad.
