TL;DR
The model can handle some of the main observations in the domain of speech errors (the major empirical domain for most other theories of lexical access), and the theory opens new ways of approaching the cerebral organization of speech production by way of high-temporal-resolution imaging.

Cognitive PsychologyA feature-integration theory of attention
12,207 Citations1980Anne Treisman, Garry A. Gelade
A new hypothesis about the role of focused attention is proposed, which offers a new set of criteria for distinguishing separable from integral features and a new rationale for predicting which tasks will show attention limits and which will not.

The present paper shows how the extended theory can account for results of several production experiments by Loftus, Juola and Atkinson's multiple-category experiment, Conrad's sentence-verification experiments, and several categorization experiments on the effect of semantic relatedness and typicality by Holyoak and Glass, Rips, Shoben, and Smith, and Rosch.

It is concluded that recent theories placing the explanatory weight on parallel processing of the irrelevant and the relevant dimensions are likely to be more sucessful than are earlier theories attempting to locate a single bottleneck in attention.

These conclusions challenge widely accepted ideas about attentional resources and probe reaction time methodologies and suggest new ways of thinking about continuous dual-task performance, effects of extraneous stimulation, and automaticity.
Cognitive PsychologyThe TRACE model of speech perception
2,951 Citations1986James L. McClelland, Jeffrey L. Elman

1,916 Citations1976Stephen Grossberg
It is shown how experience can retune feature detectors to respond to a prescribed convex set of spatial patterns, and a classification of adult feature detector properties in terms of a small number of functional principles is suggested.

1,785 Citations1995Barbara J. Grosz, Aravind K. Joshi +1 more
Interactions between local coherence and choice of referring expressions are examined; it is argued that differences in coherence correspond in part to the inference demands made by different types of referring expressions, given a particular attentional state.
CognitionFunctional parallelism in spoken word-recognition
1,748 Citations1987William D. Marslen‐Wilson
Two versions of a “cohort”-based model of the process of spoken word-recognition are described, showing how it evolves from a partially interactive model, where access is strictly autonomous but selection is subject to top-down control, to a fully bottom-up model where context plays no role in the processes of form-based access and selection.

1,597 Citations1996Hanna Damásio, Thomas J. Grabowski +3 more
Two parallel studies using positron emission tomography indicate that the normal process of retrieving words that denote concrete entities depends in part on multiple regions of the left cerebral hemisphere, located outside the classic language areas.
NatureNeural correlates of category-specific knowledge
1,569 Citations1996Alex Martin, Cheri L. Wiggs +2 more
It is found that naming pictures of animals and tools was associated with bilateral activation of the ventral temporal lobes and Broca's area, and the brain regions active during object identification are dependent, in part, on the intrinsic properties of the object presented.

Examination of muscle activity changes for individual loaded trials revealed complementary variations in the magnitude of responses among multiple muscles contributing to a movement compensation, which might suggest that for complex movements, both corrective feedback and open-loop predictive processes are operating, with the latter involved in the control of coordination among multiple movement subcomponents.

This is the first demonstration of a region chiefly devoted to auditory connections within the ventral frontal cortex within macaque monkeys, and its connections to midline cortical areas associated with vocal functions in both primates and humans may provide important clues to the organization of Broca's language area.
CognitionConceptual perspective and lexical choice in acquisition
243 Citations1997Eve V. Clark
The many-perspectives account of lexical acquisition proposes that children learn to take alternative perspectives along with the words they acquire, and, therefore, from the first, readily apply multiple terms to the same objects or events.

It is shown that each consonant segment appears as an intrusion just about as often as it appears as a target, with the exception of a small set of four segments (/s//t//s//c/) for which there is a target-intrusion asymmetry in the direction of more frequent “palatalizing” errors.

It is hypothesized that the “instantaneous” learning of a novel, or highly unfamiliar, task such as the compensatory articulation of fixed-mandible vowels is possible neither because speakers draw extensively upon past similar experience nor because special motor mechanisms distinct from those of natural speech are invoked.
Cognitive ScienceCompositionality: A Connectionist Variation on a Classical Theme

It is demonstrated that Connectionist representations can be compositional without being Classical, and that Fodor and Pylyshyn's supposedly conclusive arguments in favor of the Classical approach do not in fact support that approach over the Connectionist alternative.

Evidence that suggests that the stimulus evaluation system can pass information to the response activation system before evaluation is completed ("early communication") is reviewed, and it is suggested that the lateralized readiness potential can be used to make inferences about the nature of the evaluation process, and to localize the effects of various manipulations on the information processing system.
