A discourse on semantic priming

Cognitive Psychology, 1982
Abstract The processing of a word is sometimes affected if earlier words are semantically related to it (semantic “priming”). Priming phenomena have generally been interpreted as reflecting the organization of the mental lexicon. Past studies have shown that priming effects have a very fast rise time and a relatively rapid decay time.

Semantic priming impairment in HIV

Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 1997
HIV+ subjects have shown impairment on tests of executive function including automatic attention and verbal tasks. Impairment of semantic priming in HIV patients would suggest a disruption of automatic semantic activation. We examined semantic priming in HIV+ individuals and HIV− control participants with no history of substance abuse, neurologic

Semantic Priming in a Cortical Network Model

Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience, 2009
Abstract Contextual recall in humans relies on the semantic relationships between items stored in memory. These relationships can be probed by priming experiments. Such experiments have revealed a rich phenomenology on how reaction times depend on various factors such as strength and nature of associations, time intervals between ...

How semantic is automatic semantic priming?

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 1992
Priming for semantically related concepts was investigated using a lexical decision task designed to reveal automatic semantic priming. Two experiments provided further evidence that priming in a single presentation lexical decision task (McNamara & Altarriba, 1988) derives from automatic processes.

Priming of semantic classifications by novel subliminal prime words

Consciousness and Cognition, 2007
Four experiments demonstrate category congruency priming by subliminal prime words that were never seen as targets in a valence-classification task (Experiments 1, 2, and 4) and a gender-classification task (Experiment 3). In Experiment 1, overlap in terms of word fragments of one or more letters between primes and targets of different valences was ...

Semantic priming well established

Science, 2014
Amidst the recent furor over failures to replicate some empirical results on behavior priming by social psychologists (“Fresh misconduct charges hit Dutch social psychology,” F. v. Kolfschooten, News & Analysis, 9 May, p. [566][1]; “Replication effort provokes praise—and ‘bullying’

Semantic Priming of Progression Features in Events

Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2014
Event knowledge includes persons and objects and their roles in the event. This study investigated whether the progression of patients from a source to a resulting feature, such as the progression of hair that is cut from long to short, forms part of event representations. Subjects were presented with an event prime followed by two adjectives and asked

Semantic and Gender Priming in Frontotemporal Dementia

2009
Modifications of language processing can be observed both in normal aging and in the most common forms of degenerative dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease and the spectrum of frontotemporal dementias. The present experiment tests at the same time semantic and syntactic aspects of language processing in patients with frontotemporal dementia, using an ...

Attention and Semantic Priming: A Review of Prime Task Effects

Consciousness and Cognition, 1997
The single-word semantic priming paradigm is a tool for investigating how and when word meaning (semantic) activation occurs during visual word recognition. The prime task effect refers to the elimination of the typically robust semantic priming effect by a nonsemantic prime task (e.g., subjects search the prime word for a letter).
