Attention to Action: Securing Task-Relevant Control in Spoken Word Production
نویسنده
چکیده
The Stroop phenomenon is the finding that color naming is inhibited by incongruent color words but word reading not by incongruent colors. When the stimulus onset asynchrony (SOA) is manipulated, maximal inhibition of incongruent words on color naming is obtained when the words are presented within 100 msec of the colors, whereas facilitation of preexposed congruent words is constant. These finding are obtained both with and without task certainty. Whereas existing models explain the basic Stroop effects, they fail to account for the time course findings and for performance under task uncertainty. In this paper, I extend and apply the WEAVER++ model of spoken word production (Roelofs, 1992, 1993, 1997c; Levelt, Roelofs, & Meyer, 1999) to performance on the Stroop task and show that the model accounts for

The influence of spelling on phonological encoding in word reading, object naming, and word generation.
Does the spelling of a word mandatorily constrain spoken word production, or does it do so only when spelling is relevant for the production task at hand? Damian and Bowers (2003) reported spelling effects in spoken word production in English using a prompt-response word generation task. Preparation of the response words was disrupted when the responses shared initial phonemes that differed in ...

متن کاملWord Semantics Is Processed Even without Attentional Effort
We examined the attentional modulation of semantic priming and the N400 effect for spoken words. The aim was to find out how the semantics of spoken language is processed when attention is directed to another modality (passive task), to the phonetics of spoken words (phonological task), or to the semantics of spoken words (word task). Equally strong behavioral priming effects were obtained in t...
متن کاملUnintentional Activation of Translation Equivalents in Bilinguals Leads to Attention Capture in a Cross-Modal Visual Task
Using a variant of the visual world eye tracking paradigm, we examined if language non-selective activation of translation equivalents leads to attention capture and distraction in a visual task in bilinguals. High and low proficient Hindi-English speaking bilinguals were instructed to programme a saccade towards a line drawing which changed colour among other distractor objects. A spoken word,...
متن کاملSyllable structure affects second-language spoken word recognition and production
In this study, we show that second-language (L2) spoken-word recognition is greatly influenced by syllable-structure differences between the native language (L1) and the second language (L2), and that L2 word-recognition accuracy is a reliable predictor of L2 word-production accuracy. Spanish-speaking English learners (experimental group) completed a listening task in which they monitored /(ǝ)s...
