  • Repetition and Practice Effects in a Lexical Decision Task*

STANNERS, and LARRY HOCHHAUS Oklahoma State University, Stillwat er, Oklahoma 74074 Ss classified visually presented verbal units into the categories "in your vocabulary" or "not in your vocabulary." The primary concern 01' the experiment was to determine if making a prior decision on a given item affects the latency 01' a subsequent lexical decision for the same item. Words 01' both high and low frequency showed a systematic reduction in the latency 01' a lexical decision as a consequence 01' prior decisions (priming) but did not show any reduction due to nonspecific practice effects. Nonwords showed no priming effect but did show shorter latencies due to nonspecific practice. The results also indicated that many (at least 36) words can be in the primed state simultaneously and that the effect persists for at least 10 min. The general interpretation was that priming produces an alteration in the representation 01' a word in memory and can facilitate the terminal portion 01'the memory search process which is assumed to be random. Some recent experiments (Meyer & Schvaneveldt, several items would be in the primed state 1971; Schvaneveldt & Meyer, 1971; Meyer, simultaneously and to investigate nonspecific practice Schvaneveldt, & Ruddy, 1972) have demonstrated effects, the effect on latency of simply practicing semantic priming effects in memory using a word-nonword decisions. word-nonword classification task. The results indicate that Ss can make faster lexical decisions for primed, as METHOD cornpaired to unprimed, words.

  • Sequential Effects in the Lexical Decision Task: the Role of the Item Frequency of the Previous Trial
    Q0199—QJEP(A)01001/Mar 13, 03 (Thu)/ [?? pages – 2 Tables – 1 Figures – 10 Footnotes – 0 Appendices]. Centre single caption. shortcut keys THE QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY, 2003, 56A (3), 385–401 Sequential effects in the lexical decision task: The role of the item frequency of the previous trial Manuel Perea Universitat de València, València, Spain Manuel Carreiras Universidad de La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain Two lexical decision experiments were conducted to determine whether there is a specific, local- ized influence of the item frequency of consecutive trials (i.e., first-order sequential effects) when the trials are not related to each other. Both low-frequency words and nonwords were influenced by the frequency of the precursor word (Experiment 1). In contrast, high-frequency words showed little sensitivity to the frequency of the precursor word (Experiment 2), although they showed longer reaction times for word trials preceded by a nonword trial. The presence of sequential effects in the lexical decision task suggests that participants shift their response criteria on a trial-by-trial basis. In the lexical decision task, participants must decide as rapidly as possible whether a visually presented letter string is or is not a word. Although it is generally assumed that the lexical decision task directly taps the process of lexical access, lexical decision responses also appear to be influenced by a number of factors beyond lexical access (e.g., Balota & Chumbley, 1984; Grainger & Jacobs, 1996; Hino & Lupker, 1998; Pollatsek, Perea, & Binder, 1999). The com- position of the list is one of the factors that appears to affect lexical decision responses (see Bodner & Masson, 2001; Ferrand & Grainger, 1996; Forster & Veres, 1998; Glanzer & Ehrenreich, 1979; Grainger & Jacobs, 1996; McKoon & Ratcliff, 1995; Stone & Van Orden, 1992, 1993).

  • Experiment HP-19: Lexical Decision Task
    Experiment HP-19: Lexical Decision Task The lexical decision task (LDT) is a procedure used in many psychology and psycholinguistics experiments. The basic procedure involves measuring how quickly people classify stimuli as words or non-words; the participant needs to decide about whether combinations of letters are words or non- words. As an example, "GIRL" is a real word, the response should be “yes, this is a real word", but the letters "XLFFE" would have the correct response of "No, this is not a real word". The Lexical Decision Task (LDT), The task was introduced by Meyer and Schvaneveldt in the 1970s. Their study was to understand how long-term memory is organized and how we retrieve information from it. In the original study, Meyer and Schvaneveldt found that people respond more quickly to words that are related in their meaning than to words that are entirely unrelated. This demonstrates that reading a word "activates" related information that facilitates the recognition of other related words. Since then, the task has been used in thousands of studies, investigating semantic memory, word recognition and lexical access in general. In one LDT study, subjects are presented, visually, with a mixture of words and logatomes (nonsense syllables), also called pseudowords. These pseudowords respect the phonotactic rules of a language, like trud in English. The subject’s task is to indicate, with a button-press, whether the presented stimulus is a word or not. Data analysis is usually based on the reaction times and error rates for the various conditions for which the words or pseudowords differ.

Species in the family Psittacidae may be particularly vulnerable to anthropogenic habitat transformations that reduce availability of suitable breeding sites at different spatial scales. In southern Chile, loss of native forest cover due to agricultural conversion may impact populations of Slender-billed Parakeets (Enicognathus leptorhynchus), endemic secondary cavity-nesting psittacids. Our objective was to assess nest-site selection by Slender-billed Parakeets in an agricultural-forest mosaic of southern Chile at two spatial scales: nest trees and the habitat surrounding those trees. During the 2008–2009 breeding seasons, we identified nest sites (N = 31) by observing parakeet behavior and using information provided by local residents. Most (29/31) nests were in mature Nothofagus obliqua trees. By comparing trees used for nesting with randomly selected, unused trees, we found that the probability of a tree being selected as a nest site was positively related to the number of cavity entrances, less dead crown, and more basal injuries (e.g., fire scars).

  • A Lexical Decision Task to Measure Crystallized-Verbal Ability in Spanish
    Revista Latinoamericana de Psicología (2020) 52, 1-10 Doi: https://doi.org/10.14349/rlp.2020.v52.1 Revista Latinoamericana de Psicología http://revistalatinoamericanadepsicologia.konradlorenz.edu.co/ ORIGINAL A lexical decision task to measure crystallized-verbal ability in Spanish Graham Pluckab* a Instituto de Neurociencias, Universidad San Francisco de Quito, Cumbayá, Ecuador b The University of Sheffield, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland Received 15 May 2019; accepted 29 November 2019 KEYWORDS Abstract A classical distinction in cognitive science is between fluid and crystalized abilities. Verbal ability, Fluid ability is captured by many common executive function and intelligence tests. Crystalized crystalized intelligence, ability, on the other hand, can be measured quite simply via lexical decision tasks including the lexical decision, English-language Spot-the-Word Test. However, no similar Spanish-language test has been avai- reading, lable up to now. This paper presents a Spanish-language Lexical Decision Task that is quick to cognitive assessment administer and was tested on sample of 139 normal adult participants. Results indicate that the new test has good internal consistency and test-retest reliability. An analysis of the correlations between this new test and demographic variables, as well as with the subtests of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale suggest that it is a valid measure of crystalized-verbal ability. It also appears to be a brief but valid assessment of intelligence in general, and its positive correlation with academic achievement establishes predictive validity. The new test has the potential to be a useful research tool to rapidly measure reading ability, crystalized-verbal ability, and intelligence in Spanish speaking adults.

  • The Cognate Facilitation Effect in Bilingual Lexical Decision Is Influenced by Stimulus List Composition
    This article is now available at http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0001691816302839 THE COGNATE FACILITATION EFFECT IN BILINGUAL LEXICAL DECISION IS INFLUENCED BY STIMULUS LIST COMPOSITION Eva D. Poorta,1 and Jennifer M. Rodda,2 a Department of Experimental Psychology University College London 26 Bedford Way London WC1H 0AP United Kingdom 1 Corresponding author: Eva Poort 26 Bedford Way London WC1H 0AP United Kingdom email: [email protected] 2email: [email protected] 1 ABSTRACT Cognates share their form and meaning across languages: “winter” in English means the same as “winter” in Dutch. Research has shown that bilinguals process cognates more quickly than words that exist in one language only (e.g. “ant” in English). This finding is taken as strong evidence for the claim that bilinguals have one integrated lexicon and that lexical access is language non- selective. Two English lexical decision experiments with DutchEnglish bilinguals investigated whether the cognate facilitation effect is influenced by stimulus list composition. In Experiment 1, the ‘standard’ version, which included only cognates, English control words and regular non- words, showed significant cognate facilitation (31 ms). In contrast, the ‘mixed’ version, which also included interlingual homographs, pseudohomophones (instead of regular non-words) and Dutch- only words, showed a significantly different profile: a non-significant disadvantage for the cognates (8 ms). Experiment 2 examined the specific impact of these three additional stimuli types and found that only the inclusion of Dutch words significantly reduced the cognate facilitation effect. Additional exploratory analyses revealed that, when the preceding trial was a Dutch word, cognates were recognised up to 50 ms more slowly than English controls.
