Semantic Priming in Patients with Alzheimer and Semantic Dementia

Cortex, 2000
Semantic priming for pairs of words having semantic relation (members of the same category) but not associative relation was tested in four patients with mild Alzheimer-type dementia (AD), three patients with semantic dementia (SD) and three normal controls. Priming effects were exhibited by all the AD patients and normal controls but by none of the SD

Emotional influences on semantic priming

Cognition and Emotion, 1993
Influences of mood on qualitative aspects of cognitive processing are examined within a semantic priming paradigm. The priming effect reflects the reduction of latency for a lexical decision task when a target word is presented in combination with an associatively related prime word.

Semantic priming in nonproductive schizophrenia

Journal of Communication Disorders, 1980
A group of 10 nonproductive schizophrenics (i.e., not experiencing hallucinations, delusions, or mood swings) was compared with a group of 10 nonpsychotic alcoholics, matched on visual acuity and reading level, in a primed word identification task. Subsets of three target words were projected onto a series of screens constructed in such a way that an ...

Priming methods in semantics and pragmatics

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2017
AbstractStructural priming is a powerful method to inform linguistic theories. We argue that this method extends nicely beyond syntax to theories of meaning. Priming, however, should still be seen as only one of the tools available for linguistic data collection.

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 ...
