Does length or neighborhood size cause the word length effect?

Jalbert, Neath, Bireta, and Surprenant (2011) suggested that past demonstrations of the word length effect, the finding that words with fewer syllables are recalled better than words with more syllables, included a confound: The short words had more orthographic neighbors than the long words. The experiments reported here test two predictions that would follow if neighborhood size is a more imp...

The Biasing Effect of Word Length in Font Size Encodings

From word clouds to cartographic labels to word trees, many visualizations encode data within the sizes of fonts. While font size can be an intuitive dimension for the viewer, it may also bias the perception of the underlying values. Viewers might conflate the size of a word’s font with a word’s width, with the number of letters it contains, or with the larger or smaller heights of particular c...

Word length and orthographic neighborhood size effects in the left and right cerebral hemispheres.

Previous studies have reported an interaction between visual field (VF) and word length such that word recognition is affected more by length in the left VF (LVF) than in the right VF (RVF). A reanalysis showed that the previously reported effects of length were confounded with orthographic neighborhood size (N). In three experiments we manipulated length and N in lateralized lexical decision t...

Verbal Perception and the Word Length Effect

Retrieved-context models have played a crucial role in the understanding of serialposition effects in free recall. In this paper, a simple model in that class is proposed and tested against the case of word-length experiments. In recent years, standard interpretations of the word-length effect have been undermined by a series of experimental results, culminating with data that display an invers...

Backward recall and the word length effect.

The word length effect, the finding that words that have fewer syllables are recalled better than otherwise comparable words that have more syllables, is one of the benchmark effects that must be accounted for in any model of serial recall, and simulation models of immediate memory rely heavily on the finding. However, previous research has shown that the effect disappears when participants are...
