Tholen, Nicole; Weidner, Ralph; Grande, Marion; Amunts, Katrin; Heim, Stefan – Dyslexia, 2011
Among the cognitive causes of dyslexia, phonological and magnocellular deficits have attracted a substantial amount of research. Their role and their exact impact on reading ability are still a matter of debate, partly also because large samples of dyslexics are hard to recruit. Here, we report a new technique to simulate dyslexic symptoms in…

Engelen, Jan A. A.; Bouwmeester, Samantha; de Bruin, Anique B. H.; Zwaan, Rolf A. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2011
We tested an embodied account of language proposing that comprehenders create perceptual simulations of the events they hear and read about. In Experiment 1, children (ages 7-13 years) performed a picture verification task. Each picture was preceded by a prerecorded spoken sentence describing an entity whose shape or orientation matched or…

Woollams, Anna M.; Lambon Ralph, Matthew A.; Plaut, David C.; Patterson, Karalyn – Psychological Review, 2010
The connectionist triangle model of reading aloud proposes that semantic activation of phonology is particularly important for correct pronunciation of low-frequency exception words. Our consideration of this issue (Woollams, Lambon Ralph, Plaut, & Patterson, 2007) (see record 2007-05396-004) reported computational simulations demonstrating that…

Reichle, Erik D.; Perfetti, Charles A. – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2003
In reading research, morphological processing and monomorphemic word identification have generally been treated separately. We describe a computational model that brings both kinds of reading together within a single framework. This model assumes that word knowledge-the orthography, phonology, and meaning of words-accumulates with experiences with…

Pollatsek, Alexander; Reichle, Erik D.; Rayner, Keith – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2006
In their article, "Time Course of Linguistic Information Extraction from Consecutive Words During Eye Fixations in Reading," A. W. Inhoff, B. M. Eiter, and R. Radach (see EJ735287) reported the results of two experiments that they claimed were problematic for serial attention models of eye movements in reading (such as the E-Z Reader…
