abstract="Reading reaction time (RT) to visual stimuli was shown to vary according to the nature of simultaneous auditory stimuli. In Experiment 1, simultaneous different digits produced slower RTs than a burst of speech noise, while identicaly digits produced faster RTs. In Experiments 2 and 3 the stimuli were phoneme pairs which differed on either zero, one, or two articulatory features. Identical phonemes resulted in the fastest RTs. The RTs to non-identical phoneme pairs were not directly related to the number of differing features but were dependent upon the specific feature involved. A two-stage model was proposed to explain the results in which parallel processing of simultaneous input occurs prior to a decision-making stage.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
