Masked priming has a short and somewhat controversial history. When used as a tool to
study whether semantic processing can occur in the absence of conscious awareness …

The morphological structure of complex words impacts how they are processed during
visual word recognition. This impact varies over the course of reading acquisition and for …

Much research suggests that words comprising more than one morpheme are represented
in a “decomposed” manner in the visual word recognition system. In the research presented …

Recent theories of morphological processing have been dominated by the notion that
morphologically complex words are decomposed into their constituents on the basis of their …

The psychological reality of English phonaesthemes is demonstrated through a priming
experiment with native speakers of American English. Phonaesthemes are well-represented …

Semantic transparency is a crucial factor in the processing of morphologically complex
words, but seems to have a different impact depending on experimental conditions and …

This book explores effects of speech perception strategies upon morphological structure.
Using connectionist modeling, perception and production experiments, and calculations …

On a distributed connectionist approach, morphology reflects a learned sensitivity to the
systematic relationships among the surface forms of words and their meanings. Performance …

Many studies have suggested that a word's orthographic form must be processed before its
meaning becomes available. Some interpret the (null) finding of equal facilitation after …

In this study, we looked at priming effects produced by a short presentation (47ms) of
morphologically complex pseudowords in French. In Experiment 1, we used as primes …
