Things to consider:
1. What other lemmas (words) were interfering with his selection?
2. Was he close to the sound of the word at all beginning of the video? Do you think he had the sound (i.e., phonological encoding) of the word fully activated? Why or why not?
3. Do you think the meaning of the word (i.e., semantic representation) was activated?
