  • Title: Semantic and phonological context effects in speech error repair.
    Author: Hartsuiker RJ, Pickering MJ, de Jong NH.
    Journal: J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn; 2005 Sep; 31(5):921-32. PubMed ID: 16248742.
    Abstract:
    When speakers repair speech errors, they plan the repair in the context of an abandoned word (the error) that is usually similar in meaning or form. Two picture-naming experiments tested whether the error's lexical representations influence repair planning. Context pictures were sometimes replaced with target pictures; the picture names were related in meaning or form or were unrelated. The authors measured target picture-naming latencies separately for trials in which the context name was interrupted or completed. Interrupted trials showed semantic interference and phonological facilitation, whereas completed trials showed semantic facilitation and phonological interference. Thus, errors influence repair production. The authors explain the polarity of these effects in terms of the literature on context effects in word production.
