Résumé : Two cross-modal priming experiments investigated whether speech segmentation is based on the occurrence of strong syllables (A. Cutler & D. Norris, 1988) or lexical competition (J. L. McClelland & J. L.Elman, 1986). Auditorily presented words with no, few, or many competitors served as prime for a visual target. Facilitatory effects were larger for primes with no or few competitors than for primes withmany competitors. This difference disappeared when the interstimulus interval between the prime and target was shortened. The differential priming effects are interpreted as evidence for inhibition between competing lexical candidates. © 1995 American Psychological Association.
