Amodal aspects of linguistic design.

Tukey HSD tests showed that participants were reliably less likely to give a correct “one syllable” response to monosyllabic signs that were morphologically complex (p<.0002 by participants and items) relative to monosyllabic monomorphemic signs, and they were also slightly more likely to give correct disyllabic responses to disyllables that are morphologically complex relative to those that are morphologically simple (this latter trend was only marginally significant; p>.12, p<.005, by participants and items, respectively).
