dual model approach (coltheart et al 2001)

and connections triangle model (plaut et al 1996)

Question 2

dual route model- route 1

Answer 2

grapheme phoneme conversion= printed word- orthographic analysis – grapheme phoneme conversion- speech. This suggests we convert spelling of grapheme into phoneme allowing accurate perception of regular words (when spelling and sound correspond)

used for regular words

Question 3

dual route model- route 2

Answer 3

(lexicon and semantic knowledge)= print- orthographic analysis- orthographic input lexicon- semantic system- phonological output lexicon- speech. Lexicon regards to memory where complex words and meanings are stored . Semantic system regards to top down level of meaning to words.

used for when spelling and sound do not match each other

Question 4
