Crepaldi, Davide; Rastle, Kathleen; Davis, Colin J.; Lupker, Stephen J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2013
There is broad consensus that printed complex words are identified on the basis of their constituent morphemes. This fact raises the issue of how the word identification system codes for morpheme position, hence allowing it to distinguish between words like "overhang" and "hangover", and to recognize that "preheat" is…

Kalanthroff, Eyal; Goldfarb, Liat; Henik, Avishai – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2013
Performance of the Stroop task reflects two conflicts--informational (between the incongruent word and ink color) and task (between relevant color naming and irrelevant word reading). The task conflict is usually not visible, and is only seen when task control is damaged. Using the stop-signal paradigm, a few studies demonstrated longer…

White, Sarah J.; Staub, Adrian – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Participants' eye movements were recorded as they read single sentences presented normally, presented entirely in faint text, or presented normally except for a single faint word. Fixations were longer when the entire sentence was faint than when the sentence was presented normally. In addition, fixations were much longer on a single faint word…

Yap, Melvin J.; Balota, David A.; Sibley, Daragh E.; Ratcliff, Roger – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2012
Empirical work and models of visual word recognition have traditionally focused on group-level performance. Despite the emphasis on the prototypical reader, there is clear evidence that variation in reading skill modulates word recognition performance. In the present study, we examined differences among individuals who contributed to the English…

Barnhart, Anthony S.; Goldinger, Stephen D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Handwritten word recognition is a field of study that has largely been neglected in the psychological literature, despite its prevalence in society. Whereas studies of spoken word recognition almost exclusively employ natural, human voices as stimuli, studies of visual word recognition use synthetic typefaces, thus simplifying the process of word…

Staub, Adrian; White, Sarah J.; Drieghe, Denis; Hollway, Elizabeth C.; Rayner, Keith – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Recent research using word recognition paradigms, such as lexical decision and speeded pronunciation, has investigated how a range of variables affect the location and shape of response time distributions, using both parametric and non-parametric techniques. In this article, we explore the distributional effects of a word frequency manipulation on…

Robidoux, Serje; Stolz, Jennifer; Besner, Derek – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Two lexical decision experiments examined the joint effects of stimulus quality, semantic context, and cue-target associative strength when all factors were intermixed in a block of trials. Both experiments found a three-way interaction. Semantic context and stimulus quality interacted when associative strength between cue-target pairs was strong,…

Chan, Kit Ying; Vitevitch, Michael S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009
Clustering coefficient--a measure derived from the new science of networks--refers to the proportion of phonological neighbors of a target word that are also neighbors of each other. Consider the words "bat", "hat", and "can", all of which are neighbors of the word "cat"; the words "bat" and…

Davis, Colin J.; Perea, Manuel; Acha, Joana – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2009
The influence of addition and deletion neighbors on visual word identification was investigated in four experiments. Experiments 1 and 2 used Spanish stimuli. In Experiment 1, lexical decision latencies were slower and less accurate for words and nonwords with higher-frequency deletion neighbors (e.g., "jugar" in "juzgar"),…

Besner, Derek; Wartak, Szymon; Robidoux, Serje – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2008
There are numerous reports in the visual word recognition literature that the joint effects of various factors are additive on reaction time. A central claim by D. C. Plaut and J. R. Booth (2000, 2006) is that their parallel distributed processing model simulates additive effects of stimulus quality and word frequency in the context of lexical…

Yap, Melvin J.; Balota, David A.; Cortese, Michael J.; Watson, Jason M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
This article evaluates 2 competing models that address the decision-making processes mediating word recognition and lexical decision performance: a hybrid 2-stage model of lexical decision performance and a random-walk model. In 2 experiments, nonword type and word frequency were manipulated across 2 contrasts (pseudohomophone-legal nonword and…

Pitt, Mark A.; Samuel, Arthur G. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
Many models of spoken word recognition posit the existence of lexical and sublexical representations, with excitatory and inhibitory mechanisms used to affect the activation levels of such representations. Bottom-up evidence provides excitatory input, and inhibition from phonetically similar representations leads to lexical competition. In such a…

Cho, Yang Seok; Lien, Mei-Ching; Proctor, Robert W. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
Stroop dilution is the reduction of the Stroop effect in the presence of a neutral word. It has been attributed to competition for attention between the color word and neutral word, to competition between all stimuli in the visual field, and to perceptual interference. Five experiments tested these accounts. The critical manipulation was whether…

Kraut, Alan G.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1981
Repeated observations of a colored form results in slower reaction-time responses to the familiarized stimulus than to a comparable novel stimulus due to alertness decrement and encoding facilitation. This two-factor theory of repetition was found to hold for words as well as for colors. (Author/BW)

Becker, Curtis A. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1976
A dual-task paradigm was used to assess attentional processing demands during visual word recognition. By manipulating the difficulty of each task, it is argued that the procedure estimates the attention demands of the memory-access component of word recognition. (Editor)
