Nakayama, Mariko; Sears, Christopher R.; Lupker, Stephen J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Recent studies have found that masked word primes that are orthographic neighbors of the target inhibit lexical decision latencies (Davis & Lupker, 2006; Nakayama, Sears, & Lupker, 2008), consistent with the predictions of lexical competition models of visual word identification (e.g., Grainger & Jacobs, 1996). In contrast, using the…

These theories make different predictions regarding the relative similarity of three different types of pairs of letter strings: substitution neighbors,…
