What is the word superiority effect and the sentence superiority effect?

What will be an ideal response?


In the word- superiority effect, letters are read more easily when they are embedded in words than when they are presented either in isolation or with letters that do not form words. People take substantially longer to read unrelated letters than to read letters that form a word. There is also a sentence-superiority effect: People take about twice as long to read unrelated words as to read words in a sentence.
