“…• decoding in reading a written text (e.g., Algozzine, Mcquiston, O'shea, & McCollin, 2008;Apel & Swank, 1999;Kirby, 2018;Parrila et al, 2023;Pritchard, Coltheart, Marinus, & Castles, 2016;Swank & Catts, 1994), • decoding in communication (verbal and non-verbal) and human relations (Burgoon & Bacue, 2003;Carton et al, 1999;Lee et al, 1980;Shannon, 1948;Swank & Catts, 1994), • neural decoding in neural activities (e.g., Shi, 2010) • decoding in humor orientation (e.g., Merolla, 2006) • decoding in music perception (e.g., Corcoran, Stupacher & Vuust, 2022) However, it is also seen that the expression of decoding differs in each study and is included in more than one discipline. Since this situation will prevent the understanding and generalizability of the concept of decoding, decoding processes in different disciplines need to be specificized.…”
