Priming stress patterns in word recognition

This study addresses the lexical representation of stress in a series of five intra-modal

with auditory and visual targets. Three-syllable primes and targets were matched in

second and third syllable. Primes matched or mismatched targets in stress, which was

priming in either accuracy or latency of responses to either words or pseudowords in

consistent with lexical representations including stress information that is inseparable
