Word recognition during movement under simulated weather conditions. by Francisco Rocabado, Natasha Alonso-Bernal, Jon Andoni Duñabeitia

“…Results showed that high-frequency words were recognized better than low-frequency counterparts, reaffirming the strength of the frequency effect, even under dynamic situations. Additionally, reaction times were slower in rainy compared to sunny conditions, indicating that adverse weather impairs processing speed but not overall recognition accuracy. …”
