Abstract:
The aim of this study was to find out if the spelling models proposed to account for performance in languages with a deep orthography are applicable to a shallow orthography such as Spanish. For this reason, two experiments were carried out, one of lexical decision (in which subjects heard words and nonwords but only wrote down the nonwords) and the other a dictation in which the variables of grapheme frequency and lexical priming were manipulated. The results coincide with those found in the English language as in both experiments the two variables produced significant effects: the variable of grapheme frequency, which indicates the existence of a process of phonological spelling and the variable of lexical priming which indicates the existence of a lexical process. © 1993 Kluwer Academic Publishers.
