Abolishing the Word-Length Effect.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2004The authors report 2 experiments that compare the recall of long and short words in pure and mixed lists. In pure lists, long words were much more poorly remembered than short words. In mixed lists, this word-length effect was abolished and both the long and short words were recalled as well as short words in pure lists.

The distinctiveness of the word-length effect.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2006The authors report 2 experiments that compare the serial recall of pure lists of long words, pure lists of short words, and lists of long or short words containing just a single isolated word of a different length. In both experiments for pure lists, there was a substantial recall advantage for short words; the isolated words were recalled better than ...

Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1972
Five studies are reported in which the magnitude of the influence of word length upon the loci of instances of disfluency in the oral reading of stutterers and nonstutterers was investigated. The findings suggest that one factor which makes stutterers “unique”—differentiates them from nonstutterers—is not that they are more likely to be disfluent on ...

Word Length Distribution in Mongolian
Journal of Quantitative Linguistics, 2014ABSTRACTThis paper addresses the distribution features of word length and stem length in Mongolian, employing both dynamic (a corpus of 1 million Mongolian word tokens) and static (an orthographic Mongolian dictionary and a Mongolian stem dictionary) language resources.

Fixed-word-length arrays in variable-word-length computers
Communications of the ACM, 1962Scientific users of small-scale variable-word-length computers, such as the IBM 1401, may frequently have the occasion to use fixed-word-length arrays. For instance, it is common practice to store matrices row-wise in linear arrays. A linear array whose elements are addresses is a common storage allocation scheme for handling pushdown lists.

Length vs. Order: Word length and clause length from the perspective of word order
Journal of Quantitative Linguistics, 1997Abstract The present paper deals with two random variables: length of words and order of words (linear sequence, linear arrangement) in clauses of a text. The question to be answered is: What can a quantitative case study on Czech data add to our present knowledge of the relationship between the length of words and their placement in the clause?

Word length in Portuguese texts
Journal of Quantitative Linguistics, 1998Abstract The present paper tries to analyse the empirical word length distribution in Portuguese texts and asks whether it follows some probabilistic model. The hypothesis that word length distributions in texts are not chaotic, but abiding by specific laws is already proven for many different languages and therefore it forms the basis for an ...

Some first steps are proposed for a general approach to the structure and typology of formal languages in respect to the length of their words. A special attention is paid to the asymptotic behavior of various parameters involved in this problem.

Variable word length word-aligned hybrid compression
Proceedings of the 16th International Workshop on Data Management on New Hardware, 2020The Word-Aligned Hybrid (WAH) compression is a prominent example of a lightweight compression scheme for bitmap indices that considers the word size of the underlying architecture. This is a compromise toward commodity CPUs, where operations below the word granularity perform poorly. With the emergence of novel hardware classes, such compromises may no
