Having read a word does more to benefit its later perceptual identification when many, rather than few, of the words in the test list have been previously read. Some have suggested that this proportion overlap effect is produced by an intentional use of recognition memory or recall in the perceptual identification task. Contrary to this account, we found that words that are easily recognized (words generated from an anagram at study) do not gain more from increasing overlap than do words that are poorly recognized (words read at study). These findings are problematic for claims that word perception relies on a module, such as a logogen system, that is separate from the rest of memory.
当测试列表中的许多而非少数单词先前已被阅读时，阅读一个单词对其后续的知觉识别更有益处。一些人认为，这种比例重叠效应是在知觉识别任务中有意使用识别记忆或回忆产生的。与这种说法相反，我们发现，容易识别的单词（在学习时由变位词生成的单词）并不比难以识别的单词（在学习时阅读的单词）从增加重叠中获得更多益处。这些发现对于单词知觉依赖于一个与记忆其他部分分离的模块（如词素系统）的说法来说是有问题的。
