Written production of English compounds: effects of morphology and semantic transparency

摘要: The results of research on the processing morphologically complex words are consistent with a lexical system that activates both whole-word and constituent representations during word recognition. In this study, we focus written production examine whether semantically priming first compound influences ease producing (as measured by typing latencies), any such effect depends semantic transparency compound’s constituents. We found constituents affects in changes to processing. However, it is not only primed exerts an influence—for example, head modifier change times. discuss these effects terms competition among various as output, overall performance combination facilitation inhibition over course output.
