Distinct neural sources underlying visual word form processing as revealed by steady state visual evoked potentials (SSVEP)

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
EEG has been central to investigations of the time course of various neural functions underpinning visual word recognition. Recently the steady-state visual evoked potential (SSVEP) paradigm has been increasingly adopted for word recognition studies due ...

Visual attention span as a predictor of reading fluency and reading comprehension in Arabic

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2022
IntroductionVisual attention span is a measure of multielement parallel processing. Individuals with higher visual attention span are expected to allocate more attention to letters within strings, which boosts letter identification and translates into ...

Word contexts enhance the neural representation of individual letters in early visual cortex

open access: yes, 2020
Visual context facilitates perception, but how this is neurally implemented remains unclear. One example of contextual facilitation is found in reading, where letters are more easily identified when embedded in a word.

Theoretical analysis of interhemispheric transfer costs in visual word recognition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It is becoming increasingly clear that interhemispheric transfer is an important factor in visual word recognition. One of the two computational models of visual word recognition that includes this aspect, the SERIOL model, is tested on the basis of ...

Letter legibility and visual word recognition [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 1998
Word recognition performance varies systematically as a function of where the eyes fixate in the word. Performance is maximal with the eye slightly left of the center of the word and decreases drastically to both sides of this optimal viewing position.

The role of phonology in visual word recognition: evidence from Chinese [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Posters - Letter/Word Processing V: abstract no. 5024The hypothesis of bidirectional coupling of orthography and phonology predicts that phonology plays a role in visual word recognition, as observed in the effects of feedforward and feedback spelling to

Automatic recognition of fingerspelled words in British Sign Language [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate the problem of recognizing words from video, fingerspelled using the British Sign Language (BSL) fingerspelling alphabet. This is a challenging task since the BSL alphabet involves both hands occluding each other, and contains signs ...

Perceptual grouping in visual word recognition [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 1993
Four experiments are presented in which printed texts are read for their meaning. Some of the texts were mutilated by altering the size of selected letters. In Experiments 1, 2, and 3, the number of words mutilated per passage and the number of letters changed per word were both manipulated. In all three experiments, reading was slowed as a function of

Impact of Learning to Read in a Mixed Approach on Neural Tuning to Words in Beginning Readers

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2020
The impact of learning to read in a mixed approach using both the global and phonics teaching methods on the emergence of left hemisphere neural specialization for word recognition is yet unknown in children.

The lazy visual word form area: computational insights into location-sensitivity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2013
In a recent study, Rauschecker et al. convincingly demonstrate that visual words evoke neural activation signals in the Visual Word Form Area that can be classified based on where they were presented in the visual fields.
