![]() ![]() Instead, RB for all stimuli, including homonym pairs, declined monotonically with lag. Four experiments failed to replicate Chialant and Caramazza's ®nding that identity RB decreases, but orthographic RB increases, as a function of lag. Supporting evidence was that identical and merely similar words showed different amounts of RB as a function of stimulus onset asynchrony (lag). ![]() ![]() Recently, Chialant and Cara-mazza (Cognition 63 (1997) 79☑19) disputed the conventional view that RB for non-identical words (orthographic RB, as in lice and lick) results from the same mechanism as identity RB, and proposed that orthographic RB arises from competition for lexical selection. RB has been proposed to result from temporal limitations in creating separate episodic tokens for a twice-activated type. The dif®culty in reporting both occurrences of a repeated item is a phenomenon referred to as repetition blindness (RB). ![]()
