PSYC 2700 Lecture Notes - Lecture 12: Lexical Decision Task, Grapheme, Saccade
Document Summary
A lot of the cones and rods are here: allows us to process features more clearly, visual word recognition, eye tracking: isn"t just steady, people will spend longer on certain types of words. Can use it to explore the tracking process while reading: lexical decision task: determining whether a string of letters is a word, naming task: simply naming words. If you degrade the quality, the encoding system deals with it and cleans it up, and then sends it to the logogen system. If its irregular or regular, both types of words have the same rt for high frequency words: dual route model: adding the grapheme to phoneme route, grapheme to phoneme (also called non-le(cid:454)i(cid:272)al(cid:895) doesn"t deal (cid:449)ith (cid:449)ords. It is not sensitive to the frequency of the word (not effected by how common the word is). They meet up at the output stage at the same time.
