A Cohort Model of Visual Word Recognition.
Johnson, Neal F.; Pugh, Kenneth R.
Cognitive Psychology, v26 n3 p240-346 Jun 1994
A model of word recognition is proposed that assumes that, when a word is encountered, the first available orthographic code activates all lexical entries that are positionally equivalent with that information (the word's "cohort"). The model is explained relative to encoding and the complex orthographic unit termed a wickelgraph. (SLD)
