Overlapping Phonological and Semantic Activation in Spoken Word Production.

Abstract

Three experiments investigated whether meaning and sound information are simultaneously active during spoken word production. Speakers named pictures of homophones ("ball") while distractor words related to the depicted ("game") or alternative ("dance") meaning were played. Alternative meaning distractors facilitated naming while related distractors slowed naming, indicating overlapping sound and meaning activation.
