ERP correlates of orthographic typicality and lexicality in written word recognition Hauk O 1 , Patterson K 1 , Woollams A 1 , Watling L 1 ,Pulvermüller F 1 , Rogers TT 1,2 2 Department of Psychology, University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA Written word recognition relies on different sources of information, which can be roughly classified into two kinds [1,2,3]: i) surface properties (e.g. word length or frequency of letter combinations) ii) lexico-semantic properties (e.g. word frequency or imageability). This study aimed at dissociating the time courses and neural substrates of these processes. Using a speeded lexical decision (LD) task, event- related potentials (ERP) and minimum norm (MN) source estimates, we investigated early spatio- temporal aspects of cortical activation elicited by words and pseudowords that varied in their orthographic typicality, i.e. in the frequency of their component letter pairs (bigrams) and triplets (trigrams). Task and Stimuli 14 subjects were confronted on each trial with a word or a pseudoword, and asked to press one button with the index finger of their left hand for words and with the middle finger of the same hand for pseudowords. Quartets of stimuli were generated such that the surface-orthographic relationship between typical words (e.g. drew) and atypical pseudowords (driew) was identical to the one between atypical words (view) and typical pseudowords (vew) (see table below). The crucial manipulation was that, in one pair of each matched quartet, the word was less orthographically typical (as measured by bigram and trigram frequencies) than its partner. Each category comprised 50 items. These were matched for length, frequency, RT/accuracy (typical vs. atypical), and number of pseudo-homophones. ERP analysis and source estimation 63 EEG and 2 EOG channels (Neuroscan). Bandpass 1-20Hz. Average reference. Baseline 100ms. Artefact threshold 100uV. Only trials with correct responses were analysed. Peaks in RMS curves were selected, and amplitudes at peak electrodes subjected to 2-by-2 ANOVAs. Furthermore, p-value distributions are presented as post-hoc tests and to test for specificity of effects. MN source estimates [4] were computed on grand- mean data before subtraction. Only values with SNRs larger than 2 are shown. Time course of ERP data: A) Root-Mean-Square and ERP curves for individual conditions. Latencies selected for analysis are marked for the RMS curves. B) Voltage curves for selected electrodes. The earliest ERP effect of typicality was observed at ~100ms (atypical>typical), and the earliest effect of lexicality at ~200ms (pseudowords>words). The main cortical sources of both effects were localised in left inferior temporal cortex. The two factors interacted significantly at ~150ms, with a typicality effect for words but not pseudowords. Typical words activated perisylvian regions bilaterally, whereas atypical words elicited stronger source currents in left anterior inferior temporal cortex: the latter region is the main site of atrophy in patients with semantic dementia, who have particular difficulty recognising atypical words [1]. Our data suggest distinct but interactive processing stages in written word recognition, with the interaction reflecting integration of information from the earlier form-based system and later lexico-semantic processes. -1.5 -1 -0.5 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5 3 100ms 284ms Typical Atypical A) Typicality ERP (µV) -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 210ms 240ms 512ms 552ms Words Pseudowords B) Lexicality ERP (µV) B) Lexicality Words-Pseudowords p>0.05 p=0.01 p>0.05 p=0.01 0.9µV -0.9µV 0.8µV -0.8µV 240ms 210ms F R -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 P7 P5 P3 P1 Pz P2 P4 P6 P8 Electrode Voltage (uV) Typical Words Atypical Words -6 -4 -2 0 2 4 6 P7 P5 P3 P1 Pz P2 P4 P6 P8 Electrode Voltage (uV) Typical Pseudowords Atypical Pseudowords 1.2µV -1.2µV Typical - Atypical Typical - Atypical p>0.05 p=0.001 p=0.01 0.9µV -0.9µV p>0.05 p=0.001 p=0.01 F R Typical Atypical Word Drew View Pseudoword Vew Driew p>0.05 p=0.01 0.7µV -0.7µV F R A) Typicality Typical-Atypical References [1] Rogers, T.
