| summary | I will argue that processing letter identities and letter positions, i.e., orthographic information, occupies a central interface between visual and linguistic processing during reading. Information about letter identities and letter positions provides the gateway to whole-word orthographic representations, to morpho-orthographic representations such as prefixes and suffixes, and to phonological representations (via grapheme-phoneme associations), all of which provide subsequent access to meaning. I will present a theoretical framework for the processing of orthographic information that focuses on the distinction between location-specific and location-invariant orthographic representations, and I will present evidence in support of this framework. Finally, I will describe recent work investigating the parallel processing of orthographic information spanning several words with and without eye movements. In particular, experiments using two new paradigms - flanking letters lexical decision (FLLD) and rapid parallel visual presentation (RPVP) - demonstrate parallel processing of word identities as well as the associated semantic and syntactic information. |
