Repetition enhancement and perceptual processing of visual word form
The current study investigated the cerebral basis of word perceptual repetition priming with fMRI during a letter detection task that manipulated the familiarity of perceptual word form and the number of repetitions. Some neuroimaging studies have reported increases, instead of decreases, in brain activations (called "repetition enhancement") associated with repetition priming of unfamiliar sti...
متن کاملBrain potentials associated with perceptual priming vs explicit remembering during the repetition of visual word-form.
Priming of visual word-form was studied using a reading manipulation in which some words appeared in a backward format (e.g., d-r-o-w) instead of the usual forward format. In Experiment 1, subjects discriminated occasional targets (common first names) from other words with a speeded response. Reaction time was faster for words that had also appeared earlier in the forward format compared to the...
متن کاملRepetition Priming in Speeded Word Reading: Contributions of Perceptual and Conceptual Processing Episodes
Five experiments investigated repetition priming on an indirect speeded word reading (naming) test, a task intended to circumvent conscious recollection. Reading a word or generating it from a semantic cue (either a phrase or an antonym) produced reliable priming of similar magnitude on this indirect test of memory. Efforts to encourage conscious recollection elevated response latencies in spee...
متن کاملDysfunctional visual word form processing in progressive alexia.
Progressive alexia is an acquired reading deficit caused by degeneration of brain regions that are essential for written word processing. Functional imaging studies have shown that early processing of the visual word form depends on a hierarchical posterior-to-anterior processing stream in occipito-temporal cortex, whereby successive areas code increasingly larger and more complex perceptual at...
متن کاملThe inversion effect in visual word form processing.
Reading is one of the best well-practiced visual tasks for modern people. We investigated how the visual cortex analyzes spatial configuration in written words by studying the inversion effect in Chinese character processing. We measured the psychometric functions and brain activations for upright real-characters and non-characters and their inverted (upside down) versions. In the psychophysica...
