Neural mechanism underlying preview effects and masked priming effects in visual word processing
Two classic experimental paradigms – masked repetition priming and the boundary paradigm – have played a pivotal role in understanding the process of...

Influence of the constituent morpheme boundary on compound word access
Embedded morphemes are thought to become available during the processing of multi-morphemic words, and impact access to the whole word. According to...

Mask-related costs in measuring preview benefit: Evidence from a distributional analysis based on target word reading times
Skilled reading involves processing the upcoming word in parafoveal vision before it is fixated, leading to shorter fixations on that word. This...

Parafoveal syntactic processing from word N + 2 during reading: the case of gender-specific German articles
Previous research has suggested that some syntactic information such as word class can be processed parafoveally during reading. However, it is still...

Statistical word segmentation succeeds given the minimal amount of exposure
One of the first tasks in language acquisition is word segmentation, a process to extract word forms from continuous speech streams. Statistical...

Integrating word-form representations with global similarity computation in recognition memory
In recognition memory, retrieval is thought to occur by computing the global similarity of the probe to each of the studied items. However, to date,...

Continuous cursor-captured conceptual competition: Investigating the spatiotemporal dynamics of spoken word comprehension
Semantically related concepts are coactivated during spoken word comprehension. Two internet-mediated cursor-tracking experiments examined the...

Effects of word predictability on eye movements during Arabic reading
Contextual predictability influences both the probability and duration of eye fixations on words when reading Latinate alphabetic scripts like...

Orthographic relatedness and transposed-word effects in the grammatical decision task
In two on-line experiments ( N = 386) we asked participants to make speeded grammatical decisions to a mixture of syntactically correct sentences and...

Processing difficulty while reading words with neighbors is not due to increased foveal load: Evidence from eye movements
Words with high orthographic relatedness are termed “word neighbors” ( angle/angel ; birch/birth ). Activation-based models of word recognition assume...
-
Preview frequency effects in reading: evidence from Chinese
Studies about sentence reading have shown that visual and lexical information beyond the currently fixated word can be integrated across fixations....

An early effect of the parafoveal preview on post-saccadic processing of English words
A key aspect of efficient visual processing is to use current and previous information to make predictions about what we will see next. In natural...

Flexible parafoveal encoding of character order supports word predictability effects in Chinese reading: Evidence from eye movements
Several eye-movement studies have revealed flexibility in the parafoveal processing of character-order information in Chinese reading. In particular,...

Parafoveal processing of underlying phonological information during Korean sentence reading
The question of whether phonological information is integrated through the parafovea has remained unanswered particularly in Korean sentence reading....

Meaningful boundaries create boundary conditions for control
Recent research demonstrated that control states learned via experience in inducer locations were retrieved in novel, unbiased (i.e., diagnostic)...

The Transition from Early Bimodal Gesture-Word Combinations to Grammatical Speech
Among the first baby communications, we find the bimodal collaborations of gesture and word. In this chapter, we present some considerations on the...

Shared translation in second language activates unrelated words in first language
The present study explored bilingual coactivation during natural monolingual sentence-reading comprehension. Native Chinese readers who had learned...

Cross-linguistic differences in parafoveal semantic and orthographic processing
In this study we investigated parafoveal processing by L1 and late L2 speakers of English (L1 German) while reading in English. We hypothesized that...

Normalizing the Use of Single-Item Measures: Validation of the Single-Item Compendium for Organizational Psychology
The application of single-item measures has the potential to help applied researchers address conceptual, methodological, and empirical challenges....

Bad maps may not always get you lost: Lexically driven perceptual recalibration for substituted phonemes
The speech perception system adjusts its phoneme categories based on the current speech input and lexical context. This is known as lexically driven...
