Chang, Li-Yun; Plaut, David C.; Perfetti, Charles A. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2016
The visual complexity of orthographies varies across writing systems. Prior research has shown that complexity strongly influences the initial stage of reading development: the perceptual learning of grapheme forms. This study presents a computational simulation that examines the degree to which visual complexity leads to grapheme learning…
