    Gough's One Second of Reading

    The document describes the process by which the visual system recognizes letters and words from printed text and derives meaning. It involves pattern recognition to identify icons as letters, decoding letters into sounds, matching sounds to words in the lexicon, using syntactic and semantic rules to determine sentence meaning, storing understood sentences in memory, and converting words into a script for vocalization. The overall process moves from basic visual recognition to full semantic understanding of written language.

    System registered as an ICON

    Icon “unidentified”, consisting of bars, slits, edges,


    curves, angles, and breaks.

    Phonetic Type

    Matches the sounds against the lexicon (somewhat


    Librarian like a dictionary) and converts them into words.

    Since there are only a few words, the meaning is not yet
    clear. So, they are placed in the primary memory (PM)
    Primary Memory
