I bet I’ll remember “biochemistry” – Meta-memory as a function of lexical features and language background

Previous research has shown that people are more likely to remember positive and negative words compared to neutral words. The present study investigates whether participants with varying language backgrounds would differentially remember words based on the words’ lexical feature of valence. In a...

The present study addresses historical and contemporary discussions on second and third language vocabulary development, specifically the effects of lexical similarity. Second language learners of Spanish aspiring to learn another romance language completed a translation recognition task with...

We report results from two experiments in which the effects of rhyme prime (RP) are investigated by manipulating the properties of the interveners between prime and target. Studies of visual priming report that interveners have differing effects depending on the types of processing they require;...

We present two auditory-auditory priming experiments investigating whether decomposition effects for pseudo-related prime-target pairs like corner → CORN are restricted to early visual word recognition [10] or can also be found in auditory processing. Experiment 1 shows no difference in...

Although most auditory lexical decision experiments are performed in a laboratory setting, humans tend to communicate in uncontrolled and noisy environments. We investigated, indirectly, the impact of noise and other distractions on lexical processing. The present study used a subset of words...

In the mental lexicon words are connected to each other through various paths. We explore how a word’s representation might be accessed, depending on its syntactic properties and shared formal properties with other members of a morphological family. Morphological families of verbs in Russian are...

Indonesian has two prefixes which express a range of semantic functions (e.g. agent, instrument, patient). One prefix, PEN-, has six allomorphs (peng-, peny-, pe-, pen-, pem-, penge-). A second prefix, PE-, is described as having similar form and meaning as pe-. In this study, we used...

Contextually predictable, high frequency, competitor-dense words are often produced with less phonetically contrastive categories in spontaneous speech, often manifested with shorter durations. The present study investigates the role of temporal variation in the recognition of isolated words...

In this study we address whether contextual constraints can override bottom-up phonological information during auditory word recognition. Standard models of word recognition assume that cohort competition arises when auditory input increases the activation of word-forms with matching phonological...

Wug Tests can be used to probe morphological knowledge, from the stages of morphological development in the classic Wug Test [1], to the productivity of morphemes in a human language [6, 21], to testing the acquisition of an artificial grammar [7, 9, 22]. The present study tested three speaker...
