Instructions

In this task you have to decide whether each of the stimuli written below is or is not a real English word. If

you think it is an existing English word, please write "Y", and if you think it is not an existing English word,

please write "N".

If you are sure that the word exists, even though you don't know its exact meaning, you may still respond

"yes". But if you are not sure if it is an existing word, you should respond "no".

In this experiment, we use British English rather than American English spelling. For example: "realise"

instead of "realize"; "colour" instead of "color", and so on. Please don't let this confuse you. This

experiment is not about detecting such subtle spelling differences anyway.

You have as much time as you like for each decision. This part of the experiment will take about 5 minutes.

If everything is clear, you can now start the experiment.
