The time course of phonological code activation in two writing systems.

TL;DR: Differences in the manner in which writing systems represent phonology are not relevant to the recognition of common words, consistent with a parallel interactive model of word recognition in which orthographic and phonological information are activated at different latencies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The N400 as a function of the level of processing.

TL;DR: The results indicate that an N400 priming effect is only evoked when the task performance induces the semantic aspects of words to become part of an episodic trace of the stimulus event.
Journal ArticleDOI

Word identification in reading proceeds from spelling to sound to meaning.

TL;DR: The fact that the results are obtained in a categorization task that requires reading for meaning (rather than a lexical decision task) makes it difficult to avoid the conclusion that phonological mediation plays a role in normal reading of text for meaning.
Journal ArticleDOI

A connectionist multiple-trace memory model for polysyllabic word reading.

TL;DR: A connectionist feedforward network implementing a mapping from orthography to phonology is described, which provides an account of the basic effects that characterize human skilled reading performance including a frequency by consistency interaction and a position-of-irregularity effect.

Word frequency and neighborhood frequency effects in lexical decision and naming.

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.
