The Role of Semantic Transparency in the Processing and Representation of Dutch Compounds.

Zwitserlood, Pienie

Language and Cognitive Processes, v9 n3 p341-68 Aug 1994

Two experiments investigated the processing and representation of Dutch compound words as a function of their semantic transparency. The results provided clear evidence for the sensitivity of the lexical processing system to morphological complexity, independent of semantic transparency. (50 references) (MDM)
