Аннотация
Electrophysiological studies of visual word recognition rarely account for individual differences in participants’ language skills. However, spelling knowledge, vocabulary size, and print exposure may significantly influence these processes. In the present study, we analyzed event-related potentials (ERPs) during passive reading of correctly and incorrectly spelled words: the first experiment (N = 26) assessed spelling knowledge, and the second (N = 26) evaluated vocabulary size and print exposure. In the first experiment, orthographic effects for the P200 component (larger amplitude for correctly spelled words) and the N400 component (larger amplitude for misspelled words) were observed only in participants with high levels of spelling knowledge. In the second experiment, participants with a high vocabulary size showed greater P200 amplitude for correctly spelled words, whereas those with a low vocabulary size showed the opposite pattern. N400 effects differed in topography depending on print exposure: less experienced readers showed effects in fronto-central regions, while more experienced readers showed effects in the left temporo-occipital area. No associations were found between any language skill and the late P600 component. Thus, spelling knowledge, vocabulary size, and print exposure primarily influence early stages of orthographic processing, as reflected in the modulation of the P200 and N400 components, indicating greater automation of these processes in more skilled readers. These findings highlight the importance of considering individual differences in language skills when investigating mechanisms of visual word recognition.
