Document Summary
Lil-no aspiration 2. boundary @ 0 ms 3. Thai: 3-way place of articulation dependent upon vot -> [b]/[p] = spanish [b]/ Morpheme e. g. re, ing, happy, wash, dog 2. Adult from uni: 40000-60000 words -> pdc >150 words/min & process >4 words/sec & identify a word every 1/4 sec & 250 ms to find a word @ lexicon. Lexicon: meaning = semantic, sound = phonological, category = morphological, spelling = orthographic. Semantic organisation proved by brain damage leading to access in particular categories. Lexical decision task: decide as quickly & accurately as possible whether a stimulus is a word or not. Response latency/reaction time: longer = more processing -> know how lexicon is structured & accessed. Semantic priming effect: diff between latencies for responses a & b e. g. semantic prime present for 100 ms -> target stimulus present for 2000 ms => Doctor primes nurse -> 1. semantically related words = faster response -> semantic organisation.
