The role of neighborhood relative frequency in spoken word recognition
According to current models of word recognition, the time to recognize a word would be affected by the frequency of its neighbors. The present study examined the role of neighborhood frequency in spoken word recognition, using a definition of the neighborhood in terms of the last candidates of the cohort aligned from onset with the input [8]. Two sets of disyllabic CVCV words were selected whic...
متن کاملEffects of word frequency, contextual diversity, and semantic distinctiveness on spoken word recognition.
The relative abilities of word frequency, contextual diversity, and semantic distinctiveness to predict accuracy of spoken word recognition in noise were compared using two data sets. Word frequency is the number of times a word appears in a corpus of text. Contextual diversity is the number of different documents in which the word appears in that corpus. Semantic distinctiveness takes into acc...
متن کاملConstraint, Word Frequency, and the Relationship between Lexical Processing Levels in Spoken Word Production
Producing a word to express a meaning requires the processes of lexical selection and phonological encoding. We argue that lexical selection is influenced by contextual constraint and phonological encoding by word frequency, and we use these variables to assess the processing relations between selection and encoding. In two experiments we examined latencies to name pictures presented within sen...
متن کاملInvestigating the Locus of the Word Frequency Effect in Spoken Word Recognition
The present study aims to isolate the locus of the frequency effect within the spoken word recognition architecture. By applying the additive factors logic (Sternberg, 1969) to an auditory lexical decision task where both word frequency and stimulus quality were factorially manipulated, the reaction time data can be analyzed to study processing stages along the time course of spoken word recogn...
متن کاملAutomatic semantic feedback during visual word recognition.
Four experiments were conducted to determine whether semantic feedback spreads to orthographic and/or phonological representations during visual word recognition and whether such feedback occurs automatically. Three types of prime-target word pairs were used within the mediated-priming paradigm: (1) homophonically mediated (e.g.,frog-[toad]-towed), (2) orthographically mediated (e.g.,frog-[toad...
