| contents | Does Phonology Play a Role When Skilled Readers Read High-Frequency Words? Evidence from ERPs Newman, Randy Lynn Jared, Debra Haigh, Corinne A. Phonology Brain Hemisphere Functions Role Diagnostic Tests Word Frequency Silent Reading Spelling Error Analysis (Language) Reading Processes College Students Foreign Countries We used event-related brain potentials to clarify the role of phonology in activating the meanings of high-frequency words during skilled silent reading. Target homophones ("meet") in sentences such as "The students arranged to meet in the library to study" were replaced on some trials by either a high-frequency homophone mate ("meat") or a spelling control word ("mean"). Differences between homophone errors and spelling controls were observed, both in the N400 component and in earlier time windows, suggesting that phonology continues to play a role in activating word meanings even for highly practiced words. A manipulation of the frequency of the correct target word provided evidence concerning the nature of the processing involved. (Contains 4 figures and 1 table.) |
