This dissertation explores the effect of modality on lexical access. Various experiments examined the role of sub-lexical units in spoken Spanish and in Spanish Sign Language (LSE) in 56 hearing bimodal bilinguals, who were native or second language signers. The experiments investigate the time course of lexical access using the visual world paradigm, focusing on onset and rhyme for the spoken language, and handshape and location in the signed language. The main aim is to determine whether this access is modulated by modality-specific characteristics of the sub-lexical structure of each language and by the age of acquisition of the signed language.
