Normal reader: Dual-Route Cascaded (DRC) model:
- At least two different procedures – - Coltheart et al., (1993, 2001)
dual-route model - Lexical – representation and recognition
- Application of set of grapheme- o Orthographic input semantic

Effects in the DRC and human readers:
1. Words read faster than non-words
2. High faster than low frequency
3. Regular words read faster and more
accurately than irregular words – no
conflict between lexical and non-lexical
route
4. Larger the orthographic neighbourhood
of non-words the faster it is read aloud
– if similar words in memory
5. Non-words that sound like words read
faster than those that don’t
6. More letters in a non-word the slower it
is to read aloud, not the case for words
