In recognition memory, retrieval is thought to occur by computing the global similarity of the
probe to each of the studied items. However, to date, very few global similarity models have …

During visual word processing readers identify chunks of co-occurring letters and code for
their typical position within words. Using an artificial script, we examined whether these …

Word recognition occurs across two sensory modalities: auditory (spoken words) and visual
(written words). While each faces different challenges, they are often described in similar …

We read jubmled wrods effortlessly, but the neural correlates of this remarkable ability
remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that viewing a jumbled word activates a visual …

Brand names are valuable company assets often accompanied by a unique graphical
composition (ie, as logotypes). Recent research has demonstrated that this uniqueness …

Reading requires the correct identification of letters and letter positions within words.
Selective attention is, therefore, required to select chunks of the text for sequential …

In the search for mechanisms that contribute to dyslexia, the term “attention” has been
invoked to explain performance in a variety of tasks, creating confusion since all tasks do …

Reading causes widespread changes in the brain, but its effect on visual word
representations is unknown. Learning to read may facilitate visual processing by forming …

Three masked priming paradigms, the conventional masked priming lexical-decision task
(Forster & Davis, 1984), the sandwich priming task (Lupker & Davis, 2009), and the masked …

Orthographic processing is characterized by location‐invariant and location‐specific
processing (Grainger, 2018):(1) strings of letters are more vulnerable to transposition effects …
