The target stimuli were presented for each student in a counterbalanced manner and the positions of the target and non-target exemplar were rotated. The sequence of presentation and combination of stimuli varied to control for order effects (See Table 3). For each student, four sets of three stimuli (Sets 1, 2, 3, and 4) were selected. Set selection was counterbalanced to control for potential difficulty biases. Within each set the three stimuli were provided with a contrived nonsense monosyllabic or bi-syllabic vowel-consonant combination for each item.
