Psycholinguistic Modules Flashcards
Printed Word Recognition
Processes at Work:
Orthographic knowledge
Abstract letter identification
Orthographic Input Lexicon - Word spelling; no meaning or pronunciation concept
Reading Aloud
Route depends on whether the word is a real word or not.
Routes:
Lexical/Semantic Route
Non-Lexical/Letter-Sound Route
Semantic Dementia
No comprehension, but could read aloud well (includes exceptional words
The reading route from orthographic input to phonological output lexicon
Understanding Printed Words
Printed words > Abstract letter identification > orthographic input lexicon > Semantic system > phonological output lexicon > speech
Speaking
Includes : Semantics Phonological Output Lexicon Buffer Speech Component
Speaking - Semantics
Selecting Meaning
Speaking - Phonological Output Lexicon
Phonological representation of spoken words in the speaker’s vocabulary
Speaking - Buffer
Sound assembling of spoken words
Speaking - Speech Component
Phonemic context specification and neuromuscular events determination
Picture/Object Recognition
Part of the language processing system
Visual Object Recognition System
Semantic System
Picture/Object Recognition - Visual Object Recognition System
Structural and functional description of visual objects
Picture/Object Recognition - Semantic System
Not essential for reading aloud but is needed for object naming
Recognition and Repetition of Speech
Includes:
Echolalia
Recognition with Understanding
Recognition and Repetition of Speech - Echolalia
Don’t understand what you’re repeating
Path :
Auditory phonological analysis > Acoustic to phonological converter > speech
Recognition and Repetition of Speech - Recognition with Understanding
Path:
Auditory phonological analysis > Phonological Input Lexicon (semantics) > Phonological output lexicon > Speech
