TLDR
Imageability ratings made on a 1–7 scale and reaction times for 3,000 monosyllabic words were obtained and analysis comparing these ratings to 1,153 common words from Toglia and Battig (1978) indicate that they are valid.Abstract:
Imageability ratings made on a 1–7 scale and reaction times for 3,000 monosyllabic words were obtained from 31 participants. Analyses comparing these ratings to 1,153 common words from Toglia and Battig (1978) indicate that these ratings are valid. Reliability was assessed (α = .95). The information obtained in this study adds to that of other normative studies and is useful to researchers interested in manipulating or controlling imageability in word recognition and memory studies. These norms can be downloaded fromwww.psychonomic.org/archive/.read more

Norms of valence, arousal, and dominance for 13,915 English lemmas
TL;DR: This work extended the ANEW database to nearly 14,000 English lemmas, providing researchers with a much richer source of information, including gender, age, and educational differences in emotion norms.

TL;DR: Large-scale regression studies were used to investigate the unique predictive variance of phonological features in the onsets, lexical variables, and semantic variables to investigate visual word recognition, shedding light on recent empirical controversies in the available word recognition literature.

TL;DR: The BAWL-R is intended to help researchers create stimulus material for a wide range of experiments dealing with the affective processing of German verbal material, and is the first list that not only contains a large set of psycholinguistic indexes known to influence word processing, but also features ratings regarding emotional arousal.

The spatial coding model of visual word identification.
TL;DR: Simulations of the spatial coding model illustrate its ability to explain a broad range of results from the masked form priming literature, as well as to capture benchmark findings from the unprimed lexical decision task.

Modulation of the semantic system by word imageability.
TL;DR: fMRI data provide critical support for the hypothesis that concrete, imageable concepts activate perceptually based representations not available to abstract concepts, and are compatible with dual coding theory and less consistent with single-code models of conceptual representation.

DRC: a dual route cascaded model of visual word recognition and reading aloud.
TL;DR: The DRC model is a computational realization of the dual-route theory of reading, and is the only computational model of reading that can perform the 2 tasks most commonly used to study reading: lexical decision and reading aloud.

TL;DR: Analysis of the ability of networks to reproduce data on acquired surface dyslexia support a view of the reading system that incorporates a graded division of labor between semantic and phonological processes, and contrasts in important ways with the standard dual-route account.
