My review & meta-analysis of visual world studies on phonological prediction is now out in JML😊
I found a small, short-lived but reliable effect & an interesting timing re when phonology is activated.
+ some methodological implications for VWP studies!

We compared the vocabulary in 32 GCSE English Lit books to 200 samples of 32 books popular with British teenagers. We argue that the GCSE books will stretch avid readers with strong reading skills; these books may be inaccessible to pupils with poorer reading skills.

I'm a particular fan of their "Data Report" submission format that allows papers like this that are focused on sharing useful materials/data without the need for lengthy theoretical interpretation

[Prof Jenni Rodd @JenniRodd]

As an aside, this is the 6th paper we've published in @JCgntn in the last 2 years. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Consistently constructive reviews. High expectations wrt open science. Speedy and fully open access.
Sponsored by European Society for Cognitive Psychology.

Yup. Still happy with my conclusion. And with the supervisor feedback.

When you find your undergraduate essay from 1996 on a topic you still work on and realise you haven't really learned much in nearly 30 years
