In auditory modality, the more phonological cues of the target word involved in the auditory distractors, the stronger facilitation effect will happen on latencies and accuracy.
from the comparison between visual modality and auditory modality of phonologically related distractors and congruent distractors on accuracy, it seems that when both phonological and orthographic complete cues are provided, phonological cues may have a limited facilitation effect compared with orthographic cues for all the late Chinese-English bilinguals in this study.
