DOI: 10.1016/j.cognition.2018.12.004
Abstract: Although it is well accepted that various components of words (e.g., phonological word forms, and semantics) interact with each other during processing, it is less clear whether semantics and phonology interact with each other during… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2021.117739
Abstract: Developmental dyslexia is a specific learning disorder with impairments in reading and spelling acquisition. Apart from literacy problems, dyslexics show inefficient speech encoding and deficient novel word learning, with underlying problems in phonological processing and… read more here.

Learning new words through reading: do robust spelling–sound mappings boost learning of word forms and meanings?

DOI: 10.1098/rsos.210555
Abstract: High-quality lexical representations depend on robust representations of written form (orthography), spoken form (phonology) and meaning (semantics), and strong bonds between them. Quality of lexical representations may be affected by amount of print exposure and… read more here.

Word Forms Are Structured for Efficient Use

DOI: 10.1111/cogs.12689
Abstract: Zipf famously stated that, if natural language lexicons are structured for efficient communication, the words that are used the most frequently should require the least effort. This observation explains the famous finding that the most… read more here.

DOI: 10.1515/glot-2023-2002
Abstract: Abstract Grammatical cases of nouns are expressed by inflectional endings in Slovak. Therefore, nouns have several word forms, with the nominative considered the basic form. In addition to the endings, in some word forms there… read more here.

DOI: 10.1515/sem-2018-0112
Abstract: Abstract This paper focuses on the relation between icon and depiction and their equally central role both in verbal and in nonverbal artistic texts. For this purpose, I will examine the contact points between Jakobson… read more here.

Early recognition of familiar word-forms as a function of production skills
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Psychology"
DOI: 10.3389/fpsyg.2022.947245
Abstract: Growing evidence shows that early speech processing relies on information extracted from speech production. In particular, production skills are linked to word-form processing, as more advanced producers prefer listening to pseudowords containing consonants they do… read more here.

Short-Term Habituation of Auditory N1 in Spoken Word-Forms Is Modulated by Phonological Information
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Brain Sciences"
DOI: 10.3390/brainsci12101279
Abstract: Short-term auditory habituation is typically reflected by decreased but recoverable amplitudes of the N1 component of event-related potentials to repeated stimuli. It remains less well understood whether and how N1 habituation is modulated by the… read more here.
