The main effect of word frequency was marginally significant, F (2, 86) = 2.78, p = .068, η p 2 = .139.

The nonembedded condition (which was not realized in Experiment 2) showed a significant reaction time disadvantage for targets not embedded in words (931 ms) compared to nonwords (874 ms), t (22) = 5.22, p < .05. However, the previous advantage of targets embedded in words (863 ms) over nonwords (874 ms) was found, but only approached marginal significance ( p = .127).
