Semantic priming well established
Science, 2014Amidst 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, 2014Event 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
2009Modifications 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 ...

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 ...

Attention and Semantic Priming: A Review of Prime Task Effects
Consciousness and Cognition, 1997The 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).

Vowelling and semantic priming effects in Arabic
International Journal of Psychophysiology, 2015In 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, 2008The 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, 1996Experiments 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 ...

Affective priming: A case of semantic priming?
2006The 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
2018This 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.
