Familiarity with words modulates interhemispheric interactions in visual word recognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Bilateral redundancy gain (BRG) indicates superior performance in bilaterally presented word recognition in the left and right visual fields (RVFs) relative to word recognition given in either the left or the RVF. The BRG may be modulated by participants’

An orthographic prediction error as the basis for efficient visual word recognition
NeuroImage, 2020 Most current models assume that the perceptual and cognitive processes of visual word recognition and reading operate upon neuronally coded domain-general low-level visual representations – typically oriented line representations.

Neurobiology of Language, 2018 AbstractUnderstanding the mechanisms underlying skilled reading is at the center of modern psycholinguistics, and has been a topic of considerable interest since the beginnings of psychology as a scientific discipline. This article considers some of the theoretical and empirical issues that have shaped our understanding of one specific aspect of ...

Breaking the boundaries: the power of ligatures in visual-word recognition [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 IntroductionCurrent neurobiological-inspired models of visual-word recognition propose that letter detectors in the word recognition system can tolerate some variations in the visual form of the letters.

Effect of Handwriting on Visual Word Recognition in Chinese Bilingual Children and Adults [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2021 In a digital era that neglects handwriting, the current study is significant because it examines the mechanisms underlying this process. We recruited 9- to 10-year-old Chinese children (n = 24), who were at an important period of handwriting development,

Reduction or enhancement? Repetition effects on early brain potentials during visual word recognition are frequency dependent [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 Most studies on word repetition have demonstrated that repeated stimuli yield reductions in brain activity. Despite the well-known repetition reduction effect, some literature reports repetition enhancements in electroencephalogram (EEG) activities ...

Contributions of hemispheric dynamics in visual word recognition: uncovering familiarity effects through lateralized priming [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyIntroductionThis investigation aimed to explore interhemispheric interactions in visual word processing with a focus on proficiency development. Given the asymmetrical specialization in visual word processing across hemispheres, the study hypothesized ...

Interhemispheric interactions in visual word recognition: the role of multiple meanings [PDF]
Frontiers in PsychologyIntroductionThe current study investigated the influence of the number of meanings on visual word recognition, with a particular focus on hemispheric dynamics.MethodsBy reanalyzing parafoveal Korean lexical decision data, we examined how words with a ...

Neural compensation through dorsal stream involvement in visual word recognition under perceptual degradation in a transparent language: evidence from fMRI [PDF]
Behavioral and Brain FunctionsBackground Visual word recognition relies on a finely tuned interplay between the ventral and dorsal visual pathways. While the ventral stream is classically regarded as the primary substrate for orthographic processing, converging evidence suggests that

Evidence of Serial Processing in Visual Word Recognition. [PDF]
Psychol Sci, 2018 To test the limits of parallel processing in vision, we investigated whether observers can recognize two words at once. Observers viewed brief, masked pairs of words and were instructed in advance to judge both of the words (dual-task condition), or just one of the words (single-task condition). For judgments of semantic category, the dual-task deficit
