Popis: It is well known that visual word recognition is influenced by context, word frequency, and stimulus quality. A processing account is outlined in which stimulus quality affects the orthographic input lexicon, whereas context influences both the orthographic input lexicon and the semantic system. Word frequency exerts its primary effects on the pathways that link lexical systems with each other and with the semantic system. Previous findings that are problematic for alternative models along with the results of two new experiments are consistent with this account
