N170 and Letter Expertise 1 Running Head: N170 AND LETTER EXPERTISE An early electrophysiological response associated with expertise in letter perception
Expertise with print is likely to optimize visual processes for recognizing characters of a familiar writing system. While brain activations have been identified for words and letter strings compared to other stimuli, relatively little work has focused on the neural basis of single letter perception. English readers and Chinese-English bilinguals participated in an ERP study and performed a 1-b...
متن کاملFont tuning associated with expertise in letter perception.
Font tuning (FT) occurs when observers recognize a sequence of letters presented in the same font faster than in different fonts (Sanocki 1987, 1988 Journal of Experimental Psychology. Human Perception and Performance 13 267-278; 14 472-480). Here, we test the hypothesis that FT is associated with expertise with a specific writing system. We developed a systematic search task allowing the measu...

متن کاملRaters’ Perception and Expertise in Evaluating Second Language Compositions
The consideration of rater training is very important in construct validation of a writing test because it is through training that raters are adapted to the use of students’ writing ability instead of their own criteria for assessing compositions (Charney, 1984). However, although training has been discussed in the literature of writing assessment, there is little research regarding raters’ pe...
متن کاملThe Effect of expertise and biscriptalism on letter perception: The complexity benefit
Previous work has demonstrated that the visual complexity of letter-shapes is processed differently by naïve and expert observers. Specifically, fluent readers of the Arabic alphabet were found to discriminate complex letters more readily than less complex letters, whereas naïve observers exhibited the opposite effect. This “complexity benefit”, wherein complex letters confer a processing advan...
