KJ Huang, A Staub - Cognition, 2021 - Elsevier
Abstract Previous research (Mirault, Snell, & Grainger, 2018) has demonstrated that subjects

A transposed-word effect across space and time: Evidence from Chinese

Z Liu, Y Li, MG Cutter, KB Paterson, J Wang - Cognition, 2022 - Elsevier
A compelling account of the reading process holds that words must be encoded serially, and
so recognized strictly one at a time in the order they are encountered. However, this view …

A transposed-word effect on word-in-sequence identification
