“…Morrison et al reported that there was a strong correlation (r = .75) between young adult AoA ratings and measures of objective AoA that were recorded from object naming in children. This is not limited to only British and American culture, and has been replicated and generalized (r = .50-.96) in several languages: Chinese, French, Icelandic, Italian, Kannada, Spanish, and Turkish (Álvarez & Cuetos, 2007;Bangalore et al, 2022;Chalard et al, 2003;Chedid et al, 2019;Göz et al, 2017;Li et al, 2022;Liu et al, 2011;Lotto et al, 2010;Montefinese et al, 2019;Perez & Navalon, 2005;Pind et al, 2000;Pind & Tryggvadóttir, 2002). Recently, these AoA measures have also been found to be correlated (r = .29-.91) between 35þ languages, including Arabic, Chinese, Gaelic, English, and Persian for pictures of objects and actions (Łuniewska et al, 2016, 2019), indicating the reliability and generality of adult ratings for AoA across cultures and languages.…”

and the current review conclude that AoA effects are likely to have three potential sources: first, due to plasticity mechanisms within the connections between levels of representations (between perceptual/orthography, semantic and/or phonology), second, through the levels of connectivity within the semantic system, and third, competition between concepts within the semantic system, such that a unique concept must be chosen from its competitors or several word candidates). However, within this review we have taken the second source and subsumed it under a "multiple loci" account such that the AoA effect is situated in more than one specific linguistic system (i.e., perceptual/orthographic, semantic and phonological). It should be noted that these three sources can be viewed as M. M. Elsherif https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0540-3998 We thank Magdalena Grose-Hodge and Vikki Anderson for proofreading the article.

Age of acquisition (AoA) refers to the age at which people learn a particular item and the AoA effect refers to the phenomenon that early-acquired items are processed more quickly and accurately than those acquired later. Over several decades, the AoA effect has been investigated using neuroscientific, behavioural, corpus and computational techniques. We review the current evidence for the AoA effect stemming from a range of methodologies and paradigms, and apply these findings to current explanations of how and where the AoA effect occurs. We conclude that the AoA effect can be found both in the connections between levels of representations and within these representations themselves, and that the effect itself occurs through the process of the distinct coding of early and late items, together with the nature of the connections between levels of representation. This approach strongly suggests that the AoA effect results from the construction of perceptual-semantic representations and the mappings between representations.
