Resumen

La presente investigación explora el grado de estructuración morfológica de las palabras compuestas en los léxicos nativo y no nativo, y aporta datos adicionales sobre el acceso a estas representaciones. Se evaluó a hablantes nativos y no nativos (L1 español) de inglés mediante una tarea de decisión léxica con priming enmascarado de los constituyentes del compuesto de forma aislada, incluyendo dos condiciones ortográficas para controlar un posible locus ortográfico de los efectos. Ambos grupos mostraron efectos de cebado fiables, no mediados por la semántica, para las condiciones morfológicas pero no para las ortográficas en comparación con una línea base no relacionada. Los resultados aportan pruebas adicionales de la estructura morfológica en el léxico de los hablantes nativos y sugieren que la representación y el acceso al léxico en una segunda lengua son cualitativamente comparables a niveles relativamente avanzados de competencia.

Both groups displayed reliable priming effects, unmediated by semantics, for the morphological but not the orthographic conditions as compared to an unrelated baseline.
