The issue of dependency in language production concerns the extent to which the initiation of articulation of handwriting movements in writing for a first target word (n) is dependent on any aspect of the subsequent targets words produced (n + 1, n + 2...) . Three written picture-naming experiments were conducted in order to address this issue. The semantic, phonological! orthographic and associative relatedness was manipulated across the experiments. A semantic interference effect was found for written latencies in Experiment 1 , and no reliable effect of phonological/orthographic relatedness was found in Experiment 2. Finally, an associative facilitatory effect was found in Experiment 3. The findings (1) suggest that the dependency is limited to the written production of two words from pictures as observed in spoken production ; (2) support the hypothesis of associative links between certain representations in language production (Alario, Segui et F errand, 2000) .
