An Abundance of Riches: Cross-Task Comparisons of Semantic Richness Effects In Visual Word Recognition

There is considerable evidence (e.g., Pexman, Hargreaves, Siakaluk, Bodner, & Pope, 2008) that semantically rich words, which are associated with relatively more semantic information, are recognized faster across different lexical processing tasks. The present study extends this earlier work...
