TL;DR: A model of orthographic processing is described that postulates read-out from different information dimensions, determined by variable response criteria set on these dimensions, that unifies results obtained in response-limited and data-limited paradigms and helps resolve a number of inconsistencies in the experimental literature.

TL;DR: The authors investigated how the recognition of target words exclusively belonging to one language is affected by the existence of orthographic neighbors from the same or the other language of bilingual participants, and found that increasing the number of Orthographic Neighbors in Dutch systematically slowed response times to English target words in Dutch/English bilinguals, while an increase in target language neighbors consistently produced inhibitory effects for Dutch and facilitatory effects for English target word.

TL;DR: In this article, Dutch-English bilinguals were tested with English words varying in their degree of orthographic, phonological, and semantic overlap with Dutch words, and the results were interpreted within an interactive activation model for monolingual and bilingual word recognition.

TL;DR: This paper investigated the influence of a stimulus word's printed frequency and the frequencies of words orthographically similar to the stimulus (neighborhood frequency) on the processing of that word and found that when neighborhood frequency is controlled, the effect of word frequency in the lexical decision task is reduced to a level comparable to the frequency effect obtained in the naming task.

TL;DR: A functional architecture for word recognition that focuses on how orthographic and phonological information cooperates in initial form-based processing of printed word stimuli prior to accessing semantic information is described.
