Lexical activation produces potent phonemic percepts
Article Abstract:
The selective adaptation methodology is used to determine whether auditory word recognition is a fully bottom-up autonomous process or a top-down process within a more interactive setting. The study investigates the possible impact of lexical influences on the observed pattern of phonemic activation. The findings lend support for the top-down process theory. They suggest that adaptation happens at a sublexical level and interceded by phoneme or phoneme-like representations that arise from top-down lexical to phonemic activation.

Guinea for your thoughts
Article Abstract:
Mulinational corporations say that they are giving monetary support and providing additional resources to the overseas communities in which they operate. The possibility that these companies may be giving with one hand while taking with the other raises the question of whether the way in which they exercise their corporate responsibility overseas is a way to legitimise exploitative behaviour.
