If Neisser (1967) had found that it takes longer to search for two target letters than to search for just one, then PANDEMONIOUM’s assumption that letter recognition is _____ would have been disconfirmed.

Swinney (1979) found that close associates of both meanings of an ambiguous word are always primed in an immediate lexical decision task. For example, right after encountering the ambiguous word “bug” research participants were quicker to recognize both “ant” (a close associate of the insect meaning of “bug”) and “spy” (a close associate of the listening device meaning) regardless of the context. This supports the _____ model of how we access the appropriate meaning of an ambiguous word. 

Patients with phonological dyslexia are unable to read _____. This suggests that the indirect route between the appearance of a word and its meaning has been lost.

Farah & McClelland’s (1991) model of semantic memory impairment uses _____ representations of concepts.

Automatic processes such as word recognition _____.

In McClelland & Rumelhart’s (1981) Interactive Activation model _____.

_____ are the categories (like letters in written language) into which we place speech sounds. They vary from language to language.
