Abstract
Connine, Blasko, and Hall (Journal of Memory and Language 30:234-250, 1991) suggested that within a 1-second temporal window, subsequent biasing information can influence the identification of a previously spoken word. Four experiments further explored this hypothesis. Our participants heard sentences in which an ambiguous target word was followed less than or more than a second later by a word biased in favor of either the target word or another word. Overall, the effects of the contextual biases on responding, measured using phonemic restoration and phoneme identification, were almost as large after 1second as before 1second. The implications of these results for defining the window of contextual effects are discussed.
