Bordag, Denisa; Kirschenbaum, Amit; Rogahn, Maria; Tschirner, Erwin – Second Language Research, 2017
Four experiments were conducted to examine the role of orthotactic probability, i.e. the sequential letter probability, in the early stages of vocabulary acquisition by adult native speakers and advanced learners of German. The results show different effects for orthographic probability in incidental and intentional vocabulary acquisition: Whereas…

Verhagen, Josje; de Bree, Elise; Mulder, Hanna; Leseman, Paul – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2017
This study investigates the relationship between nonword repetition (NWR) and vocabulary in 2-year-olds. Questions addressed are whether (1) NWR and vocabulary are associated, (2) phonotactic probability affects NWR, and (3) there is an interaction effect between phonotactic probability and vocabulary on NWR performance. The general aim of the…

Whitehouse, Andrew J. O.; Bishop, Dorothy V. M. – Neuropsychologia, 2009
Verbal and visuospatial abilities are typically subserved by different cerebral hemispheres: the left hemisphere for the former and the right hemisphere for the latter. However little is known of the origin of this division of function. Causal theories propose that functional asymmetry is an obligatory pattern of organisation, while statistical…

White, Katherine K.; Abrams, Lise; McWhite, Cullen B.; Hagler, Heather L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2010
In this experiment, syntactic constraints on the retrieval of orthography were investigated using homophones embedded in sentence contexts. Participants typed auditorily presented sentences that included a contextually appropriate homophone that either shared part of speech with its homophone competitor (i.e., was syntactically unambiguous) or had…
