Main Article Content
This systematic review aimed to examine the use of megastudies conducted to analyze word recognition in visual lexical decision task in languages considered to have transparent orthography. Specifically, it sought to explore, on one hand, the methodological criteria for the design and administration of the task. On the other hand, it aimed to analyze the characteristics of the databases that resulted from these megastudies. A systematic review of the available literature from the past 15 years up to March 2024 was conducted across various databases (PubMed, Scopus, PsycInfo, and SciELO). A search was performed for original articles that had conducted megastudies to evaluate written word recognition in visual lexical decision tasks, including studies involving children and adults without processing impairments. The search yielded a total of 133 articles, of which eight met the inclusion criteria. Half of the megastudies included a large number of participants, while the other half included a large number of stimuli and a large number of participants. It can be concluded that the visual lexical decision task is highly relevant for psycholinguistic studies of word recognition, that the available databases provide valuable contributions for future analyses, and that there is a need for megastudies in different transparent orthography languages that do not yet have them.
