Investigating semantic memory impairments: the contribution of semantic priming.
The semantic priming task is a valuable tool in the investigation of semantic memory impairments in patients with acquired disorders of language. This is because priming performance reflects automatic or implicit access to semantic information, unlike most other tests of semantic knowledge, which rely on explicit, voluntary access. Priming results are important for two main reasons: First, norm...
متن کاملMultimodular networks and semantic memory impairments.
We present a multi-modular approach to neural modeling of associa-tive memory. By segregating between intra-modular and inter-modular synaptic transmission, and subjecting the latter to non-linear dendritic processing, we can successfully store memories encoded on diierent numbers of modules. This model has a striking capability of memory retrieval from partial inputs when the appropriate neuro...

15 صفحه اولThe influence of working memory load on semantic priming.
The present research examines the nature of the different processes that have been proposed to underlie semantic priming. Specifically, it has been argued that priming arises as a result of automatic target activation and/or the use of strategies like prospective expectancy generation and retrospective semantic matching. This article investigates the extent that these processes rely on cognitiv...
متن کاملThe semantic priming project.
Speeded naming and lexical decision data for 1,661 target words following related and unrelated primes were collected from 768 subjects across four different universities. These behavioral measures have been integrated with demographic information for each subject and descriptive characteristics for every item. Subjects also completed portions of the Woodcock-Johnson reading battery, three atte...
