Alphabetic letter identification: effects of perceivability, similarity, and bias.
The legibility of the letters in the Latin alphabet has been measured numerous times since the beginning of experimental psychology. To identify the theoretical mechanisms attributed to letter identification, we report a comprehensive review of literature, spanning more than a century. This review revealed that identification accuracy has frequently been attributed to a subset of three common s...
متن کاملAlphabetic Letter Perceivability, Similarity, and Bias
The similarity of the letters in the Latin alphabet has been measured numerous times using a variety of methodologies and stimuli. We provide a comprehensive review of past attempts to construct similarity spaces of the Latin alphabet, and determine that accuracy has frequently been attributed to a subset of three common sources: perceivability, bias, and similarity. We present the results of t...
متن کاملContext-dependent similarity effects in letter recognition
In visual word recognition tasks, digit primes that are visually similar to letter string targets (e.g., 4/A, 8/B) are known to facilitate letter identification relative to visually dissimilar digits (e.g., 6/A, 7/B); in contrast, with letter primes, visual similarity effects have been elusive. In the present study we show that the visual similarity effect with letter primes can be made to come...
