Aging influences the neural correlates of lexical decision but not automatic semantic priming.
Human behavioral data indicate that older adults are slower to perform lexical decisions (LDs) than young adults but show similar reaction time gains when these decisions are primed semantically. The present study explored the functional neuroanatomic bases of these frequently observed behavioral findings. Young and older groups completed unprimed and primed LD tasks while functional magnetic r...
متن کاملFalse memories and lexical decision: even twelve primes do not cause long-term semantic priming.
Semantic priming effects are usually obtained only if the prime is presented shortly before the target stimulus. Recent evidence obtained with the so-called false memory paradigm suggests, however, that in both explicit and implicit memory tasks semantic relations between words can result in long-lasting effects when multiple 'primes' are presented. The aim of the present study was to investiga...
متن کاملDepth of Automatic Spreading Activation: Mediated Priming Effects in Pronunciation but Not in Lexical Decision
Lexical decision and pronunciation experiments were conducted to investigate whether activation automatically spreads beyond directly associated concepts within the memory network. Prime-target pairs were constructed such that there was a relation between the prime (e.g., lion) and the target (e.g., stripes) only through a mediating concept (e.g., tiger). The lexical decision results yielded fa...
متن کاملIt takes time to prime: semantic priming in the ocular lexical decision task.
Two eye-tracking experiments were conducted in which the manual response mode typically used in lexical decision tasks (LDTs) was replaced with an eye-movement response through a sequence of 3 words. This ocular LDT combines the explicit control of task goals found in LDTs with the highly practiced ocular response used in reading text. In Experiment 1, forward saccades indicated an affirmative ...
متن کاملExpectation Affects Unconscious Semantic Priming
It is clear that we are able to process semantic information from stimuli that are masked and not consciously perceived according to objective threshold criteria (Bodner & Masson, 2003; Dell’Aqua & Grainger, 2001). It has been argued that these unconscious semantic priming effects cannot be attributed to consciously controlled processes – such as expectancy – since these processes cannot operat...
