Apfelbaum, Keith S.; McMurray, Bob – Cognitive Science, 2017
Previous research on associative learning has uncovered detailed aspects of the process, including what types of things are learned, how they are learned, and where in the brain such learning occurs. However, perceptual processes, such as stimulus recognition and identification, take time to unfold. Previous studies of learning have not addressed…

Feifer, Steven G.; Nader, Rebecca Gerhardstein; Flanagan, Dawn P.; Fitzer, Kim R.; Hicks, Kelly – Learning Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2014
The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the various neurocognitive processes concomitant to reading by attempting to identify various subtypes of reading disorders in a referred sample. Participants were 216 elementary school students in grades two through five who were given select subtests of the Woodcock Johnson-III Tests of…

Kliegl, Reinhold; Risse, Sarah; Laubrock, Jochen – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2007
Using the gaze-contingent boundary paradigm with the boundary placed after word n, the experiment manipulated preview of word n + 2 for fixations on word n. There was no preview benefit for 1st-pass reading on word n + 2, replicating the results of K. Rayner, B. J. Juhasz, and S. J. Brown (2007), but there was a preview benefit on the 3-letter…

Samuels, S. Jay – 1968
Two separate studies were designed to investigate the effect of reading the first word of a pair on the speed of recognizing the second. One study drew its subjects from the college level; the other from the fourth grade. A Scientific Prototype Three-Channel Tachistoscope was used, and an erasing image was flashed immediately following the…

Wolpert, Edward M. – Reading Teacher, 1971
Points out that oral reading involves visual, auditory, and kinesthetic perception and that it is impossible to divide reading methods into auditory and visual categories. Discusses the need to discover whether a child's perceptual abilities are directly related to his learning propensities and lists several other areas of needed research.…

Kleiman, Glenn M. – 1979
Two experiments explored whether the facilitatory effect of context on lexical decisions is limited to words subjects generated when given the context as a prompt in a production task, or if the effect is wider in scope. The first experiment provided evidence of a wide scope of facilitation from single word contexts. In the second experiment, the…

Mason, Mildred – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 1982
Three experiments report additional evidence that it is a mistake to account for all interletter effects solely in terms of sensory variables. These experiments attest to the importance of structural variables such as retina location, array size, and ordinal position. (Author/PN)

NEWTON, KENNETH R.; AND OTHERS – 1966
THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN PREREADING MEASURES OF VISUAL-MOTOR-PERCEPTUAL SKILLS AND READING ACHIEVEMENT WERE STUDIED. SUBJECTS WERE 172 FIRST GRADERS. PRETESTS AND POST-TESTS FOR WORD RECOGNITION, MOTOR COORDINATION, AND VISUAL PERCEPTION WERE ADMINISTERED. FOURTEEN VARIABLES WERE TESTED. RESULTS INDICATED THAT FORM-COPYING WAS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN…
