A visual search experiment employed strings of Landolt "C"s to examine how the gap size of and frequency of exposure to distractor strings affected eye movements. Increases in gap size were associated with shorter first-fixation durations, gaze durations, and total times, as well as fewer fixations. Importantly, both the number and duration of…

You, Wenping; Chen, Baoguo; Dunlap, Susan – Cognition, 2009
Frequency trajectory is a better measure to investigate age-limited learning effects than age of acquisition (AoA) ratings (Zevin, J. D., & Seidenberg, M. S. (2002). "Age of acquisition effects in word reading and other tasks." "Journal of Memory and Language, 47"(1), 1-29). The current study uses frequency trajectory as a variable to investigate…

Ventura, Paulo; Morais, Jose; Kolinsky, Regine – Cognition, 2007
The influence of orthography on children's on-line auditory word recognition was studied from the end of Grade 2 to the end of Grade 4, by examining the orthographic consistency effect [Ziegler, J. C., & Ferrand, L. (1998). Orthography shapes the perception of speech: The consistency effect in auditory recognition. "Psychonomic Bulletin & Review",…
