The suffix-suffix effect in word recognition, where facilitation is absent for related suffixed words, is not general. This study found facilitation regardless of prime or target suffix, challenging existing lexical models.

Area of Science:

  • Psycholinguistics
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Computational Linguistics

Background:

  • Morphological facilitation is generally unaffected by word structure (prefix/suffix).
  • A specific exception, the 'suffix-suffix' effect, shows absent facilitation when both prime and target words are suffixed.
  • This effect was previously attributed to inhibitory links between suffixes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the generality of the 'suffix-suffix' effect in morphological facilitation.
  • To re-evaluate the necessity of inhibitory links between suffixes in lexical models.

Main Methods:

  • Assessed morphological facilitation using an orthographically related baseline.
  • Utilized both lexical decision and naming tasks.
  • Employed both auditory and visual presentation for prime words.

Main Results:

  • Facilitation was observed for suffixed primes with both derivational and inflectional targets.
  • This facilitation occurred regardless of whether primes were auditory or visual.
  • The 'suffix-suffix' effect was not replicated under these conditions.

Conclusions:

  • The 'suffix-suffix' effect is not a general phenomenon in morphological processing.
  • Findings challenge lexical models that propose inhibitory links between suffixes of related words.
  • Alternative explanations for the original 'suffix-suffix' effect may be needed.
