Spoken word recognition involves brief activation of candidate words. Six experiments examined whether words semantically related to phonologically activated words would be falsely recognized. Experiments 1 and 2 involved homophones as test words; Experiment 3 used strong associates for the semantic mediation link. Experiment 4 approximated lists of "strong" converging associates. Experiment 5 expanded the real time needed for word identification by using a gating procedure during study. In Experiment 6, the goal was to create a more sensitive test by requiring participants to indicate which of two lures (mediated or control) was "most likely" to be new. Recognition errors were sensitive to separate phonetic and semantic stages in the mediated chain; however, there was little evidence of mediated false recognition, despite expectations derived from common models of spreading activation.
口语单词识别涉及对候选单词的短暂激活。六个实验检验了与语音激活单词语义相关的单词是否会被错误识别。实验1和实验2使用同音异形词作为测试单词；实验3使用强联想词作为语义中介链接。实验4近似于“强”收敛联想词列表。实验5在学习过程中使用门控程序来延长单词识别所需的实时时间。在实验6中，目标是通过要求参与者指出两个诱饵（中介的或对照的）中哪一个“最有可能”是新的来创建一个更敏感的测试。识别错误对中介链中单独的语音和语义阶段敏感；然而，尽管从常见的扩散激活模型中可以预期，但几乎没有证据表明存在中介性错误识别。
