Visual similarity effects on masked priming
We investigated the role of the visual similarity of masked primes to targets in a lexical decision experiment. In the primes, some letters in the target (e.g., A in ABANDON) had either visually similar letters (e.g., H), dissimilar letters (D), visually similar digits (4), or dissimilar digits (6) substituted for them. The similarities of the digits and letters to the base letter were equated ...
متن کاملTask-Dependent Masked Priming Effects in Visual Word Recognition
A method used widely to study the first 250 ms of visual word recognition is masked priming: These studies have yielded a rich set of data concerning the processes involved in recognizing letters and words. In these studies, there is an implicit assumption that the early processes in word recognition tapped by masked priming are automatic, and masked priming effects should therefore be invarian...
متن کاملDoes visual letter similarity modulate masked form priming in young readers of Arabic?
We carried out a masked priming lexical decision experiment to study whether visual letter similarity plays a role during the initial phases of word processing in young readers of Arabic (fifth graders). Arabic is ideally suited to test these effects because most Arabic letters share their basic shape with at least one other letter and differ only in the number/position of diacritical points (e...
متن کاملSemantic and morphological effects in masked priming
Data from masked priming experiments have been used to support a traditional view of the mental lexicon where morphemes are stored discretely and complex words are decomposed in processing. In masked priming, visual primes are presented briefly and masked so to that subjects cannot consciously process them. This paradigm is generally considered insensitive to semantic effects. Thus, results sho...
متن کاملShared neighborhood effects in masked orthographic priming.
Several studies have found effects of orthographically related masked nonword primes on lexical decisions to target words. These effects have been explained by the neighborhood characteristics of the target word (Forster, 1987), but the neighborhood characteristics of the prime in combination with the target are also found to be important (Hinton, Liversedge, & Underwood, 1998). In this study, ...
