Table 2.

Mean RTs per condition and mean ambiguity effects (and 95% confidence interval) for the control group (n = 20) on each dependent measure of the lexical ambiguity resolution task in Experiment 2.

	Word type	Ambiguous	Unambiguous	Ambiguity effect
Sentence reading	Biased	2359	2211	148 (39 to 257)^**
	Balanced	2149	2161	−12 (−84 to 61)
Word naming	Biased	835	843	−7 (−38 to 23)
	Balanced	834	840	−6 (−39 to 27)

Ambiguity effect = Ambiguous minus Unambiguous
