J Clin Exp Neuropsychol. The procedure in Hoedenmaker and Gordon is based on the assumption that we move our eyes when we are done processing a word. Copyright © 2020 Farlex, Inc. | Request Permissions. In two experiments, prime distractor words produced semantic priming in a subsequent lexical decision task, but with the direction of priming (positive or negative) depending on the prime task. These two prominent people have been one of the reasons why a study on the organization and construction of semantic memory was established way back in the 20th century. Experiments 1 and 2 analyzed associative/semantic effects at several very short stimulus-onset asynchronies (SOAs), whereas Experiments 3 and 4 used a single-presentation paradigm at two response-stimulus intervals (RSIs). Semantic priming for high-dominance exemplars was modulated by the relatedness proportion and, to a lesser degree, by the nonword ratio. 2002 May;24(3):356-69. doi: 10.1076/jcen.24.3.356.978. Semantic priming refers to the observation that a response to a target (e.g., dog) is faster when it is preceded by a semantically related prime (e.g., cat) compared to an unrelated prime (e.g., car). doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0224481.

Each trial is formed by one prime and one target, but usually the prime demands no response, only the participant’s attention. 2020 May;70(5):699-712. doi: 10.1007/s12031-020-01479-x. Dement Neuropsychol. Neural oscillations and event-related potentials reveal how semantic congruence drives long-term memory in both young and older humans.  |  2016 Apr-Jun;10(2):91-97. doi: 10.1590/S1980-5764-2016DN1002004.

Semantic priming refers to the observation that a response to a target (e.g., dog) is faster when it is preceded by a semantically related prime (e.g., cat) compared to an unrelated prime (e.g., car). Although this process is often automatic, priming can also be guided by the use of specific strategies to achieve a particular task goal. On each lexical decision trial, a prime-target pair was presented, and participants had to indicate whether the target was a word or non-word as quickly and accurately as possible. Despite the fact that there was no difference between groups in the magnitude of semantic priming effects when SOA was 250ms, at the 500ms SOA their magnitude was bigger in children, corroborating previous studies.

Semantic priming effects were found at both SOAs in the third graders' group and in college students. In a standard semantic priming experiment, participants are required to perform a lexical decision task (decide if the target is a word or a pseudoword) or a pronunciation/naming task (say the target aloud). Thermal sensitivity and cardiovascular reactivity to stress in healthy males. NIH This item is part of JSTOR collection Transl Neurosci. 2019 Nov 5;14(11):e0224481. Online ahead of print.

The logic of a proportion manipulation is similar to our use of SOAs of different durations. Epub 2005 Jan 19. Explain why differences in priming between these memory conditions suggest that working memory is required for forward associate priming.

Participants performed lexical decisions to targets which were preceded by semantic related or unrelated primes.

However, in the real world, words are encountered in the context of reading, and successful word recognition is signaled by moving the eyes to the next word. The influence of congruency proportion, target eccentricity, and valence strength on the spatial-valence metaphoric congruency effect in a word valence judgment task.
