Post-lexical representations and processes in writing: Evidence from peripheral dysgraphia

Lexical and post-lexical phonological representations in spoken production.

Theories of spoken word production generally assume a distinction between at least two types of phonological processes and representations: lexical phonological processes that recover relatively arbitrary aspects of word forms from long-term memory and post-lexical phonological processes that specify the predictable aspects of phonological representations. In this work we examine the spoken pro...

Shared lexical representations: evidence from first-language acquisition

There is a striking inconsistency in how similarity is treated in local connectionist models: phonological and semantic similarity are taken into account, whereas lexical similarity is plainly ignored. In this article, lexical similarity, in particular the ordering of segments within words, is shown to influence linguistic behaviour. A detailed analysis of one child’s acquisition of German reve...

Lexical and Grammatical Collocations in Writing Production of EFL Learners

Lewis (1993) recognized significance of word combinations including collocations by presenting lexical approach. Because of the crucial role of collocation in vocabulary acquisition, this research set out to evaluate the rate of collocations in Iranian EFL learners' writing production across L1 and L2. In addition, L1 interference with L2 collocational use in the learner' writing samples was st...
