Gardner Michael K. | Word-frequency effect in lexical decision: finding a frequency-based component | Subjects making lexical decisions are reliably faster in responding to high-frequency words than to low-frequency words. This is known as the word frequency effect. We wished to demonstrate that some portion of this effect was due to frequency differences between words rather than to other dimensio... | Stimulus; Interaction; Variance | 1987 |
