The Nature of Reader Ability Differences in Lexical Access.
Briggs, Pamela; Underwood, Geoffrey
Journal of Research in Reading, v10 n1 p57-74 Feb 1987
Describes two tasks: one involving picture-word interference, the other involving a lexical decision paradigm. Indicates that poor readers use a phonological route to lexical access independent of task demand. Discusses findings using K. E. Stanovich's interactive-compensatory model of reading. (JD)
