The time course of processing handwritten words: An ERP investigation
(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 ...
Does the Visual Attention Span Play a Role in Reading in Arabic?
(Scientific Studies of Reading, 2018)
It is unclear whether the association between the visual attention (VA) span and reading differs across languages. Here we studied this relationship in Arabic, where the use of specific reading strategies depends on the ...
Matrices of the frequency and similarity of Arabic letters and allographs
(Behavior Research Methods, 2020)
Indicators of letter frequency and similarity have long been available for Indo-European languages. They have not only been
pivotal in controlling the design of experimental psycholinguistic studies seeking to determine ...
Do handwritten words magnify lexical effects in visual word recognition?
(The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2016)
An examination of how the word recognition system is able to process handwritten words is fundamental to formulate a comprehensive model of visual word recognition. Previous research has revealed that the magnitude of ...
Do Diacritical Marks Play a Role at the Early Stages of Word Recognition in Arabic?
(Frontiers in Psychology, 2016)
A crucial question in the domain of visual word recognition is whether letter similarity plays a role in the early stages of visual word processing. Here we focused on Arabic because in this language there are various ...
Does visual letter similarity modulate masked form priming in young readers of Arabic?
(Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2018)
We carried out a masked priming lexical decision experiment to study whether visual letter similarity plays a role during the initial phases of word processing in young readers of Arabic (fifth graders). Arabic is ideally ...
