The paper can be found <A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?ftp%3A%2F%2Fftp.princeton.edu%2Fpub%2Fharnad%2FBBS%2F.WWW%2Fbbs.macneilage.html">here</A>.<br /><br /><STRONG>3.4 Speech and typing.</STRONG>A perspective on this dual-component view of speech production organization can be gained by comparing it with another language output behavior - typing. There is evidence to suggest that there is a considerable commonality between spoken language and typing - even copy typing - in early stages of the process of phonological output, stages in which there is a role of the lexicon. For example, Grudin (l981) found that on 11 of 15 occasions, copy typists spontaneously corrected the spelling of a misspelled word with which they were inadvertently presented. However typing does not posess an F/C mode of organization. Any typist knows that in contrast with spoken language, exchange errors occur not between units with comparable positions in an independently specified superordinate frame structure, but simply between adjacent letters (MacNeilage, l964). And this is true whether the units are in the same syllable or in different syllables. In addition, unlike in speech, there is no constraint against exchanging actions symbolizing consonants and actions symbolizing vowels. Vowel and consonant letters exchange with each other about as often as would be predicted from the relative frequency with which vowel letters and consonant letters appear in written language (MacNeilage, l985). Nespoulous et al (l985) have reported a similar freedom from phonotactic constraints of the language in agraphics. <br /> <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fmixingmemory.blogspot.com" TITLE="scarymoonie at aol dot com">Chris</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6642011.post-1100034807170404792004-11-09T16:13:00.000-05:002004-11-09T16:13:00.000-05:00Yes, psycholinguists are interested in typing erro...Yes, psycholinguists are interested in typing errors. One interesting thing to do is look at how they differ from speech errors. This can provide insight into how speech works. I have a list of examples somewhere. If I find them, I'll send them to you. <br /><br /><A></A><A></A>Posted by<A><B> </B></A><A HREF="http://www.blogger.com/r?http%3A%2F%2Fmixingmemory.blogspot.com" TITLE="scarymoonie at aol dot com">Chris</A>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
