[Representation of letter position in visual word recognition process].
Two experiments investigated the representation of letter position in visual word recognition process. In Experiment 1, subjects (12 undergraduates and graduates) were asked to detect a target word in a briefly-presented probe. Probes consisted of two kanji words. The latters which formed targets (critical letters) were always contained in probes. (e.g. target: [symbol: see text] probe: [symbol...
متن کاملWhat do letter migration errors reveal about letter position coding in visual word recognition?
Dividing attention across multiple words occasionally results in misidentifications whereby letters apparently migrate between words. Previous studies have found that letter migrations preserve within-word letter position, which has been interpreted as support for position-specific letter coding. To investigate this issue, the authors used word pairs like STEP and SOAP, in which a letter in 1 w...
متن کاملUnits of representation in visual word recognition.
A s you read these words, a complex sequence of processes are at work in your brain, identifying visual patterns (letters) that are mapped onto familiar units (words), the meanings of which are combined to allow comprehension. In this description, a mental dictionary or lexicon linking word forms (orthography) to word meanings (semantics) plays a central and critical role in the reading process...
متن کاملLetter visibility and the viewing position effect in visual word recognition.
The ease with which printed words are recognized depends on the position at which the eyes initially fixate the word. In this study, we examined to what extent recognition performance for each fixation position depends on the average visibility of the word's constituent letters. Experiment 1 measured recognition performance to single letters embedded in strings of Xs (lengths of 5 and 7) for al...
متن کاملThe processing of consonants and vowels during letter identity and letter position assignment in visual-word recognition: an ERP study.
Recent research suggests that there is a processing distinction between consonants and vowels in visual-word recognition. Here we conjointly examine the time course of consonants and vowels in processes of letter identity and letter position assignment. Event related potentials (ERPs) were recorded while participants read words and pseudowords in a lexical decision task. The stimuli were displa...
