Stimulus-response binding is not a gradually learned association between specific stimuli and their responses: Evidence from a teenage bilingual population

In the current study, participants made a verbal naming response to prime target word flanked by distractor word, followed lexical decision probe or nonword, word. By tracking potential priming effects from having either become (attended repetition condition) (ignored condition), consistent positive and negative were obtained. These results broaden our understanding that stimulus-response binding does not need be gradually learned (Henson et al., 2014). Rather, it can formed single S-R pairing.
