Abstract
the properties of distributed network models, and support this account by demonstrating that an implemented simulation closely approximates the empirical findings despite the absence of expectancy-based processes and postlexical semantic matching. The results suggest that distributed network models can provide a viable single-mechanism account of lexical processing. Introduction It is well-established that people are faster and more accurate to read a word (e.g., BUTTER) when it is preceded by a related word (e.g., BREAD) compared with when it is preceded by an unrelated word (e.g., DOCTOR; The research was supported by an NIMH FIRST award (MH55628) to the first author and by NIMH Training Grant 5T32MH19102 and NICHD Grant 80258. The computational simulation was run using customized software written within the Xerion simulator (version 3.1) developed by Drew van Camp, Tony Plate, and Geoff Hinton at the Univers
