三个词汇决策实验使用的语义启动技术的变体测试的假设，复合词的形态分解过程中识别。如果一个复合成分在处理过程中被访问，联想启动将有助于访问，从而识别整个单词。相反，来自自动分解假设的预测，实验1揭示了语义不透明的化合物（毛茛）和伪化合物（抵制），引发其初始或最终成分没有启动效应。实验2的数据表明，语义透明的化合物中的两种成分都可以访问（茶匙）。实验3是一个重复实验，证实了不透明化合物的最终成分没有被访问，而透明化合物的那些。数据的整体模式反驳了塔夫脱和福斯特（1976）提出的自动形态分解的概念。然而，修订后的分解程序将与结果一致。只有当没有其他词汇表示与解析的刺激部分的正字法描述相匹配时，才可以访问词素。在这种情况下，只有语义透明的复合词缺乏独立的词汇表征。
Three lexical decision experiments using a variant of the semantic priming technique tested the hypothesis that compound words are morphologically decomposed during recognition. If a compound constituent is accessed during processing, an associative prime will facilitate that access and hence recognition of the whole word. Contrary to the predictions derived from the automatic decomposition hypothesis, Experiment 1 revealed no priming effects for semantically opaque compounds (buttercup) and pseudo-compounds (boycott), primed either on their initial or final constituent. The data from Experiment 2 suggested that both constituents in semantically transparent compounds are accessed (teaspoon). Experiment 3 was a replication experiment, confirming that final constituents of opaque compounds are not accessed, whereas those of transparent compounds are. The overall pattern of data refutes the notion of automatic morphological decomposition proposed by Taft and Forster (1976). However, a revised decomposition procedure would be compatible with the results. Morphemes might only be accessed if no other lexical representations match the orthographic description of the parsed stimulus part. In this account, only semantically transparent compounds lack an independent lexical representation.
