Numerous experiments have been conducted in recent years on anomalous retroactive influences on cognition and affect (Bem, 2010), yet more data are needed to understand these processes precisely. For this purpose, we carried out an initial retro-priming study in which the response times of 162 participants were measured (Rabeyron and Watt, 2010). In the current paper, we present the results of ...

The authors examine how judgmental priming effects are shaped by comparisons. Specifically, they suggest that concept priming involves spontaneous activation of concept-consistent standards, which are then spontaneously compared to the judgmental target. In 6 studies, they used a variety of priming methods (contextual cue, subliminal priming, indirect priming) to test these notions of spontaneo...

Cadmium (Cd) is considered one of the most toxic heavy metals to living organisms, being very persistent in soil and non-biodegradable, thus posing a long-term hazard plants humans. In recent years, application different molecules at seed level, known as chemical priming, has been studied method improve stress tolerance plants. present study, we tested effect hydro-priming proline priming lettu...

The Effect of Hormone Seed Priming Using Gibberellic Acid on Germination Characteristics and Seedling Growth Coneflower (Echinacea purpurea)

in tropical pulses such as mung bean use of zeolite due to keep of moisture is important. to study of effects of seed pelleting with zeolite and seed priming with iron chelate on protein and grain yield of mung bean cultivars in ahvaz conditions, an experiment was conducted as a factorial in randomized completely block design (rcbd) with three replication in experimental farm of the ramin unive...

One of the key issues in bilingual lexical representation is whether L1 processing is facilitated by L2 words. In this study, we conducted two experiments using the masked priming paradigm to examine how L2-L1 translation priming effects emerge when unbalanced, low proficiency, Korean-English bilinguals performed a lexical decision task. In Experiment 1, we used a 150 ms SOA (50 ms prime durati...

this study was aimed to assess of priming effects on soluble proteins and antioxidant enzymes of as a nigella sativa medicinal plant under different levels of salinity and drought. two greenhouse factorial experiments with three replicated randomized complete block design were conducted.treatments included five levels of priming (potassium nitrate 1% and salicylic acid 0.2 mm in 6 hours, potass...

Background & Aim: Because of seed germination ability of medicinal plants seed is low and, generally exposed to problem. Priming is one of the techniques that help seeds to be germinated faster and uniformly. Experimental: A laboratory experiment was carried out on germination and growth improvement in Heracleum persicum Desf.  by seed osmo-primming in Seed Technology Labora...
