Increase in phonotactic probability facilitate spoken nonword repetition
Article Abstract:
The results from a nonword naming experiment, employing a new set of duration-matched stimuli that demonstrate a facilitative effect of phonotactic probability above and beyond that of stimulus duration are reported. It is believed that there is still sufficient evidence to support the claim that increases in phonotactic probability for nonwords are associated with decreases in nonword processing times, even when stimulus duration is controlled.

Does neighborhood density influence repetition latency for nonwords? Separating the effects of density and duration
Article Abstract:
Twelve experiments examined the effect of neighborhood density on repetition latency for nonwords. The results obtained consistent effects of stimulus duration on repetition latency, and either no effect of neighborhood density or a latency advantage for low density rather than high-density nonwords.

Serial position effects in nonword repetition
Article Abstract:
A growing body of research has emphasized the linkage between performance in immediate serial recall of lists, nonword repetition, and word learning. A description in terms of the relationship between list recall and nonword repetition, and broader issues in word learning, are presented.
