Taft, Marcus – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1979
Five experiments are described that detail both the structure of lexical representations accessed in visual word recognition and the method of parsing words in order to access these representations. The results support a system of lexical access that is not mediated by phonological encoding. (SW)

Fischler, Ira; Bloom, Paul A. – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1979
Experiments were conducted to determine the effects of sentence contexts on word recognition and reading. The questions of whether context is predominantly facilitating or inhibiting and how automatic the influence of contexts is on word retrieval were investigated. (SW)

Magiste, Edith – Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal Behavior, 1979
A cross-section method was used to study the developmental changes in elementary decoding and encoding processes of 163 Swedish-German bilingual students, whose length of residence in Sweden varied. It was demonstrated that decoding in two languages, expressed in terms of reaction time, develops faster than encoding. (SW)
