Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Hanulova, Jana; Davidson, Douglas J.; Indefrey, Peter – Language and Cognitive Processes, 2011
Bilinguals are slower when naming a picture in their second language than when naming it in their first language. Although the phenomenon has been frequently replicated, it is not known what causes the delay in the second language. In this article we discuss at what processing stages a delay might arise according to current models of bilingual…

Phoneme Monitoring.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Connine, Cynthia M.; Titone, Debra – Language and Cognitive Processes, 1996
Reviews phoneme monitoring studies from 1969 to 1996 and groups them in terms of issues addressed with the task, including the contribution of the lexicon to speech perception, processing complexity, attention, contribution of prosodic information, and the basic unit of speech perception. Identifies and highlights task demands and artifactual…

Masked Phonological Priming in Reading Chinese Words Depends on the Task.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Shen, Di; Forster, Kenneth I. – Language and Cognitive Processes, 1999
In two masked priming experiments with Chinese characters, orthographic priming effects were observed in lexical decision and naming tasks despite the fact that the primes were phonologically unrelated to the target characters. Data suggest that the recovery of lexical information for Chinese characters does not depend on the prior activation of…

Syntactic Priming.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Nicol, Janet L. – Language and Cognitive Processes, 1996
Reviews the syntactic priming task, a paradigm involving the presentation of a phrasal or clausal context, followed by the presentation of a target item for lexical decision or naming. Notes that response times are faster for targets syntactically congruent with the preceding context than for incongruent targets. Outlines how to administer this…
