Orthographic repetition blindness

Article Abstract:

Three experiments on orthographic repetition blindness are discussed. Repetition blindness involves the failure to report a second occurrence of the same word or a similar word when briefly displayed in sequence. Topics include orthographic repetition blindness when critical words are non-neighbors and alternative accounts based on neighborhood and similarity inhibition.

Article Abstract:

Categorization times for "well-defined" categories are examined in relation to typicality effects, category dominance, and instance familiarity. The failure of well-defined categories to produce unbiased typicality effects provides support for a category structure that is graded and similarity-based.
