Three experiments were conducted to separate the influence of word frequency on lexical access from its influence on production stages in the pronunciation task. A delayed pronunciation task was used in which a word was presented and, after some delay', a cue was presented to pronounce the word aloud. Presumably, subjects should access the word's lexical representation during the delay interval and any effect of frequency can be attributed to its influence on production rather than on lexical access. In the first two experiments frequency still had a significant effect with a delay interval of 900 milliseconds. At a delay interval of 400 milliseconds, where the subjects should have accessed the word's lexical representation before the pronunciation cue, the word-frequency effect was 41 milliseconds, only 17 milliseconds less than the 58-millisecond effect obtained with the same words in a normal pronunciation task. A significant word-frequency effect at a delay interval of 2900 milliseconds was found in the third experiment where rehearsal during the delay interval was disrupted by requiring subjects to whisper the alphabet while waiting for the cue to respond.
