Morpho-lexical Representations in Naming

Abstract

Abstract In two naming experiments, it was shown that response times for morphologically structured pseudowords are faster than those for orthographically matched controls. These results are consistent with those obtained in lexical decision tasks with morphologically structured pseudowords. The implications of these results for models of lexical processing are considered. In particular, it is argued that the results reported provide support for compositional models of lexical knowledge.
