Abstract
In two experiments, we examined the influence of semantic activation o n the generation of a phonological code, testing the interactivity ass umption common to both dual-route and interactive-activation models. I n Experiment 1, subjects named regular and irregular targets preceded by related and unrelated primes. In Experiment 2, these variables and target imageability were manipulated. Both relatedness and imageabilit y interacted with regularity, indicating that semantic activity speeds access to a phonological code.
