Parallel distributed processing models represent a new and exciting approach to the study of visual word recognition in reading. Seidenberg McClelland's (1989) model is examined because strongest widest claims for viability connectionist account have been made on basis their model.
The spelling–sound correspondences in written Persian are always consistent, but some of the words include vowels as a fixed part their spelling (phonologically transparent words), whereas for other typically not specified opaque words). Two speeded naming studies show that semantic relatedness and word frequency affect performance (a) on both classes when context excludes nonwords, (b) affects nonwords form context. A further study shows yield effects absent from context, effect disappears...
Six experiments are reported which examine the assertion that phonological recoding for purpose of lexical access in visual word recognition is prevented or impaired by concurrent articulation (“articulatory suppression”). The first section this paper selectively reviews literature, and reports two fail to replicate previous work. third experiment contrasts performance with visually presented words non-words. Latency measures show an effect suppression specific words, whilst error rates...
It is well known that visual word recognition influenced by context, frequency, and stimulus quality. A processing account outlined in which quality affects the orthographic input lexicon, whereas context influences both lexicon semantic system. Word frequency exerts its primary effects on pathways link lexical systems with each other Previous findings are problematic for alternative models along results of two new experiments consistent this
The present experiments tested the claim that phonological recoding occurs "automatically" by assessing whether it uses central attention in context of psychological refractory period paradigm. Task 1 was a tone discrimination task and 2 reading aloud. joint effects long-lag word repetition priming stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) were underadditive Experiment 1, suggesting an early component lexical processing does not use attention. In contrast, nonword letter length grapheme-phoneme...
