Early Morphological Effects in Word Recognition in Hebrew: Evidence from Parafoveal Preview Benefit.

Deutsch, Avital; Frost, Ram; Pollatsek, Alexander; Rayner, Keith – Language and Cognitive Processes, 2000
Hebrew words are composed of two interwoven morphemes: a triconsonantal root and a word pattern. Two experiments examined the effect of the root morpheme on word identification by assessing parafoveal preview benefit effects. Although the information of the preview was not consciously perceived, preview of the root's letters facilitated both…

Assessed encoding of suffixed words (both derivations and inflections) by monitoring eye movements during reading English sentences in which target words were embedded. Whole-word frequency and root frequency were independently manipulated, where pairs of words differing on one variable and matched on the other were inserted into the same sentence…
