Professor Stephen J. Lupker, Department of Psychology, Faculty of Social Science, Western University, researches lexical decision, naming tasks, phonological codes, word frequency, and reading and language processing. His research mission is to explain the cognitive processes underlying visual word recognition and language comprehension through experimental psychology. Public Western sources available in this search are strongest through his curriculum vitae and Western-hosted publications, so this biography stays conservative while reflecting his long-standing research program in cognitive psychology at Western University.
