TLDR
This article found that incomplete sentence context facilitated a subsequent lexical decision only when the test word was a highly likely completion of the sentence, while it inhibited responses to anomalous words, and subjects could not eliminate the inhibition or the facilitation when they were instructed to ignore the implication of each context.About:

Reading senseless sentences: brain potentials reflect semantic incongruity
Marta Kutas,Steven A. Hillyard +1 more
TL;DR: In a sentence reading task, words that occurred out of context were associated with specific types of event-related brain potentials that elicited a late negative wave (N400).
Journal ArticleDOI
A Distributed, Developmental Model of Word Recognition and Naming.
TL;DR: A parallel distributed processing model of visual word recognition and pronunciation is described, which consists of sets of orthographic and phonological units and an interlevel of hidden units and which early in the learning phase corresponds to that of children acquiring word recognition skills.
Journal ArticleDOI
The lexical nature of syntactic ambiguity resolution
TL;DR: Reinterpreting syntactic ambiguity resolution as a form of lexical ambiguity resolution obviates the need for special parsing principles to account for syntactic interpretation preferences, and provides a more unified account of language comprehension than was previously available.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward an interactive-compensatory model of individual differences in the development of reading fluency
TL;DR: This paper found that good and poor readers tend to use the redundancy inherent in natural language to speed word recognition, and that general comprehension strategies and rapid context-free word recognition appear to be the processes that most clearly distinguish good from poor readers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Illusions of familiarity.
TL;DR: This article showed that a wide variety of feelings about the past are controlled by a fluency heuristic, including feeling about the meaning, pleasantness, duration, and recency of past events.

Controlled and Automatic Human Information Processing: 1. Detection, Search, and Attention.
TL;DR: A series of studies using both reaction time and accuracy measures is presented, which traces these concepts in the form of automatic detection and controlled, search through the areas of detection, search, and attention and resolves a number of apparent conflicts in the literature.
