      Deaf readers benefit from lexical feedback during orthographic processing 

      Gutierrez-Sigut, Eva; Vergara-Martínez, Marta; Perea, Manuel (Scientific Reports, 2019)
      It has been proposed that poor reading abilities in deaf readers might be related to weak connections between the orthographic and lexical-semantic levels of processing. Here we used event related potentials (ERPs), known ...

      Does narrator variability facilitate incidental word learning in the classroom? 

      Tapia, José Luis; Rocabado, Francisco; Vergara-Martínez, Marta; Perea, Manuel (SPRINGER, 2022)
      Recent studies have revealed that presenting novel words across various contexts (i.e., contextual diversity) helps to consolidate the meaning of these words both in adults and children. This effect has been typically ...

      The ERP signature of the contextual diversity effect in visual word recognition 

      Vergara-Martínez, Marta; Comesaña, Montserrat; Perea, Manuel (Cognitive, Affective, & Behavioral Neuroscience, 2017)
      Behavioral experiments have revealed that words appearing in many different contexts are responded to faster than words that appear in few contexts. Although this contextual diversity (CD) effect has been found to be ...

      The time course of processing handwritten words: An ERP investigation 

      Vergara-Martínez, Marta; Gutierrez-Sigut, Eva; Perea, Manuel; Gil-López, Cristina; Carreiras, Manuel (Neuropsychologia, 2021)
      Behavioral studies have shown that the legibility of handwritten script hinders visual word recognition. Furthermore, when compared with printed words, lexical effects (e.g., word-frequency effect) are magnified for less ...
