When the sentence She ran her best time yet in the rice last week is displayed using rapid serial visual presentation, viewers sometimes misread rice as race (M. C. Potter, A. Moryadas, I. Abrams, & A. Noel, 1993). Seven experiments combined misreading and repetition blindness (RB) paradigms to determine whether misreading of a word because of biasing sentence context represents a genuine perce...

Neural Processing of Repetition and Non-Repetition Grammars in 7- and 9-Month-Old Infants

An essential aspect of infant language development involves the extraction of meaningful information from a continuous stream of auditory input.

However, there were group differences on the real-word reading and non-word repetition tasks. Unlike the...
