Experimental procedure and sequence of stimuli presentation. During EEG recordings, participants were asked to pay attention to the center of the screen and read silently the stimuli presented. A set of novel written word-forms (e.g.: nabla) was presented repeatedly six times across six successive training trials. Additionally, another set of real Spanish known words (e.g.: nieve) was presented to participants in order to establish a control comparison between known and novel written words. For both sets of stimuli, equal sequence of presentation was followed with the same elements, with presentation durations indicated to the right of each rectangle. Red triangles on the schematic ERP epoch (lower right) indicate, for each ERP effect, the latencies when maximal ERP changes were found as consequence of the repeated exposure to novel written word-forms
