Book excerpt: These experiments demonstrate that the perception of two distinct words in a briefly presented display can interact, causing perceptual migrations of letters from one word to the other. For example, when LINE and LACE are presented, subjects might report seeing LICE or LANE instead of LINE. Several properties of the letter migrations were revealed: Migrations are more frequent when the words are separated by smaller physical distances; a majority of the migrations are a result of letters being copied from one word to the other, not from the interchange of letters of the two words; migrations to a word are less frequent when subjects focus attention on that word; and migrations are far more frequent when the words share letters in common. This last result suggests that migrations are not caused by a loss of spatial information at the letter level, that is, by free-floating letters being wrongly combined. Rather, migrations occur because of structural limitations at a high level of the word-recognition process, perhaps during lexical activation. Implications for models of multiple-word perception are discussed. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study is to test whether EPAM (Elementary Perceiver and Memorizer) can explain context effects in letter recognition in the form of a computer program, has successfully explained many aspects of learning and perception in a range of task environments. In 1984, Barsalou and Bower claimed that EPAM could not explain the phenomena in the tachistoscopic perception experiments successfully simulated by the Interactive Activation Model (IAM) of word perception (McClelland & Rumelhart. 1981; Rumelhart & McClelland, 1982). In this study, using EPAM IV, a revision of the most recent version of EPAM, we show that the human data modeled by the IAM are at least as accurately simulated by EPAM. Close examination of the performance of the two programs shows that the fact that one (EPAM) processes perceptions serially, while the other (IAM) processes them in parallel, plays no essential role in producing the context effects that are observed. The main effects are produced, in both programs, by a feedback of information from word recognition to the process of recognizing letters. Keywords: Letter perception; Context effect; EPAM; Interactive activation model; Connectionism. (sdw).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1974, this volume presents seven detailed views of human information processing at the time. While no single volume can do justice to the breadth of the area, it was hoped that the present selections reflected both the content and methodological approaches currently used by experimental psychologists concerned with the issues and problems of human information processing. The organization of the book is simple, proceeding from the human performance end of the continuum, an overview of which is given in the first chapter. Successive chapters are progressively more concerned with human cognition, and the last chapter gives an overview of human cognition. The intervening chapters are devoted to more specific topics and yield a detailed portrait of the models, findings, and methodology of human information processing.

Download or read book Visual Cognition written by Glyn W. Humphreys and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1989 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vision allows us to do many things. It enables us to perceive a world composed of meaningful objects and events. It enables us to track those events as they take place in front of our eyes. It enables us to read. It provides accurate spatial information for actions such as reaching for or avoiding objects. It provides colour and texture that can help us to separate objects from their background, and so forth. This book is concerned with understanding the processes that allow us to carry out these various visually'driven behaviours. In the past ten years our understanding of visual processing has undergone a rapid change, primarily fostered by the convergence of computational, experimental and neuropsychological work on the topic. Visual Cognition provides the first major attempt to cover all aspects of this work within a single text. It provides a state'of'the'art summary of research on visual information processing, relevant to advanced undergraduates, postgraduates and research workers. It covers: seeing static forms, object recognition, dynamic vision (motion perception and visual masking), visual attention, visual memory, visual aspects of reading. For each topic, the relevant computational, experimental and neuropsychological work is integrated to provide a broader coverage than that of other texts.

Book excerpt: The articles in this special issue tackle the earliest stages of the reading process. The first three articles address issues of letter perception: i.e. how letter representations are activated from their visual features. The remaining four articles address the nature of the letter representations themselves, from functional, developmental and neural perspectives. These articles introduce novel and interesting ways to investigate the very earliest stages of the reading process. The research reported here will stimulate future investigations of this highly tractable, yet long overlooked, area of reading research.

Download or read book Basic Processes in Reading written by Derek Besner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chapters in this new book span the range of reading processes from early visual analysis to semantic influences on word identification, thus providing a state-of-the-art summary of current work and offering important contributions to prospective reading research. Basic Processes in Reading examines both future plans and past accomplishments in the world of word identification research. Three chapters provide a futuristic view taking a parallel distributed processing approach to semantic priming, phonology, and the identification of old words and the learning of new words. Reviews on eye movements in reading and semantic priming on word identification provide a retrospective summary of work on these issues as well as solid pointers for future investigations. Other chapters provide new demonstrations of the importance of phonological contributions to word identification, of interactive processes in the identification of handwritten words, and a re-evaluation of the processes involved in the neuropsychological syndrome described as "letter-by-letter" reading.
