A1 - Grainger, Jonathan Y1 - 1994/12// N2 - A chart of models of visual word recognition is presented that facilitates formal comparisons between models of different formats. In the light of the theoretical contributions to this special section, sets of criteria for the evaluation of models are discussed, as well as strategies for model construction.
