三个实验考察了芬兰语长复合词的语义透明度是否会影响该复合词在阅读中的编码方式。第一个成分（作为一个单独的词）的频率被操纵，同时匹配复合词和第二个成分的频率。这种频率操作对编码时间的影响就像一个“标记”，表明复合词至少部分地、组成地被处理了。在实验1中，每个高频透明化合物与一个低频透明化合物配对，每个高频不透明化合物与一个低频不透明化合物配对。为每对单词创建一个句子框架，直到目标单词后面的单词相同。在实验2和实验3中，在透明词对和不透明词对之间进行匹配。此外，实验3有一个显示变化操作，其中第二个组成部分的大部分是不可见的，直到它被固定。研究了读者在阅读目标词时和阅读目标词后的注视模式。在目标词的注视时间测量中观察到可靠的第一成分频率效应，但透明度没有影响。此外，将显示变化条件与标准条件的比较表明，复合词的成分是顺序处理的。因此，透明和不透明长复合词的识别至少部分是通过访问组成词来实现的，而不依赖于从组成词中构造意义。
Three experiments examined whether the semantic transparency of a long Finnish compound word has any influence on how the compound word is encoded in reading. The frequency of the first constituent (as a separate word) was manipulated, while matching for the frequencies of the compound word and of the second constituent. The effect of this frequency manipulation on encoding time served as a 'marker' that the compound word was processed, at least in part, componentially. In Experiment 1, each high-frequency transparent compound was paired with a low-frequency transparent compound, and each high-frequency opaque compound was paired with a low-frequency opaque compound. A sentence frame was created for each pair that was identical up to the word following the target word. In Experiments 2 and 3, the matching was done between transparent and opaque word pairs. In addition, Experiment 3 had a display change manipulation in which most of the second constituent was not visible until it was fixated. Readers' eye fixation patterns on and immediately after the target word were examined. Reliable first constituent frequency effects were observed in the fixation duration measures on the target word, but there were no effects of transparency. In addition, a comparison of the display change condition to the standard condition indicated that the constituents of the compound word were processed sequentially. It thus appears that the identification of both transparent and opaque long compound words takes place, at least in part, by accessing the constituent lexemes and does not rely on constructing the meaning from the components.
