Semantic category effects in visual word search
The initial question was whether subjects could categorize a word semantically before they precisely identified the word itself. This failed to occur. When searching a visual display for a single target word, subjects searched at the same rate whether the distractors were in the same or in a different semantic category. However, when the size of the target set was increased to three, then six, ...
متن کاملEmbodied Semantic Effects in Visual Word Recognition
Words have meanings; on that much, psycholinguists are generally agreed. However, the issue of what “meaning” is, and why a word’s semantic content affects how easily it is recognised, are matters of less consensus. Studies of visual word recognition typically ask participants to perform one of two key tasks: deciding whether a letter string is a valid word (lexical decision), or reading a word...
متن کاملSemantic category effects in second language word learning
The present study addresses a long-standing assumption in the field of applied linguistics: that presenting new second language (L2) vocabulary in semantically grouped sets is an effective method of teaching. Participants learned 32 new L2 labels for concepts from four different semantic categories in either a related or unrelated condition. At test, participants translated words in both transl...
متن کاملCategory Search for Video Using Semantic Visual Templates
We tackle the problem of category search for video using Semantic Visual Templates (SVTs). SVTs represent personalized views of a concept and define an effective set of queries to retrieve a general category of images and videos. The system generates SVTs in two stages: training initial templates and Bayesian relevance feedback. Given a labeled database of videos, the system trains an initial s...
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...
