Priming summation in the cerebral hemispheres: evidence from semantically convergent and semantically divergent primes

Neuropsychologia, 2002
The ability to activate and to maintain a large and relatively undifferentiated semantic field has been thought to be an important component of lexical semantic processing by the right hemisphere (RH). An implication of this unique propensity of the RH was examined in the present study that included two divided visual field priming experiments with ...

Vowelling and semantic priming effects in Arabic

International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2015
In the present experiment we used a semantic judgment task with Arabic words to determine whether semantic priming effects are found in the Arabic language. Moreover, we took advantage of the specificity of the Arabic orthographic system, which is characterized by a shallow (i.e., vowelled words) and a deep orthography (i.e., unvowelled words), to ...

Predicting Semantic Priming at the Item Level

Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 2008
The current study explores a set of variables that have the potential to predict semantic priming effects for 300 prime–target associates at the item level. Young and older adults performed either lexical decision (LDT) or naming tasks. A multiple regression procedure was used to predict priming based upon prime characteristics, target characteristics,

Is Automatic Priming Semantic?

European Journal of Cognitive Psychology, 1996
Experiments were conducted to examine the extent to which automatic priming reflects the retrieval of semantic information, as opposed to the associative/collocational relationships between words. When the target task was pronunciation of highly legible words, context effects were only obtained for normative associates that were also rated as close ...

Auditory semantic priming substrates : a comparative study of associative and semantic priming

2005
In the current work, the distinction between priming for associatively-related (AR) and unassociated semantically-related (SR) words is examined. Specifically, whereas associatively-related words demonstrate strong and robust priming effects when presented within the context of lexical-level tasks, generation of significant SR priming appears to ...

Semantic priming in schizophrenia

1984
An investigation of associative and direct priming effects of 17 schizophrenics and 17 non-hospitalized normal controls, was carried out using a reading latency task. Assessment of capacity of short-term memory using activation spread was also investigated.

Affective priming: A case of semantic priming?

2006
The article presents a review of affective priming effects. It is suggested that a spreading activation explanation of these effects isimplausible because of: 1) shortcomings at the theoretical level; 2) it cannot account for empirical data obtained with the pronunciationtask. Alternative explanations are offered. They are based on the assumption of an

Semantic Primes and Definitions

2018
This chapter spells out why earlier attempts at defining Eastern Europe and Central Europe have been largely unsuccessful. Encyclopaedic meaning, favoured by cognitive semanticists, and the “problematization” of meaning are treated with extreme caution.

Semantic Representation of Events: Building a Semantic Primes Component

2006
This paper describes a system of semantic primes necessary for the large-scale semantic representation of event types, encoded as verbal predicates The system of semantic primes is compiled via mapping modeling elements of the Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM), the Semantic Minimum – Dictionary of Bulgarian (SMD), and the Role and Reference Grammar ...
