title: Test of Response Bias Explanation of Word-Frequency Effect.
abstract: Observers identified monosyllabic words presented in noise. It was found that controlling response bias eliminates the word-frequency effect. However, the magnitude of the word-frequency effect was greater than that predicted by a mathematical model denying stimulus words any role in producing the word-frequency effect.
