Abstract

Yamazaki, et al. (1997) rejected word length measured by number of syllables as not significant in accounting for naming latencies for Japanese kanji characters. This study reexamined Yamazaki, et al.'s data and found that monosyllabic characters were named slower than two- and three-syllable characters. This finding is taken as suggesting the presence of an articulatory planning stage in speech production in Japanese.
