augment of germination rate is important in seedling establishment and crop yield. a set of study in laboratory & field conditions at agronomy department of university of tehran was conducted during 2004-2005. in lab. experiment the effects of seed priming was evaluated on germination indices (germination percentage and rate) of chickpea genotypes in a factorial experiment of 4×3×2 arranged in ...

The present research investigates the role of intuitive mental processing on cooperation in experimental games involving structural inequality. Results from an experiment using conceptual priming to induce intuitive mental processing provide the first evidence that cooperation is promoted by intuition in an asymmetric context that distributes the gains from cooperation unequally among a group. ...

In this study, we tested the prediction of the component process model of priming [Henson, R.N. (2003). Neuroimaging studies of priming. Prog Neurobiol, 70 (1), 53-81] that repetition priming of familiar and unfamiliar objects produces qualitatively different neural repetition effects. In an fMRI study, subjects viewed four repetitions of familiar objects and globally unfamiliar objects with fa...

objective: to evaluate the effect of chemical stimuli on germination and seedling growth of caper (capparis spinosa) under drought stress. methods: factorial experiment in a completely randomized design with four replicates per treatment were performed. first factor of priming include three levels of acetylsalicylic acid (300, 200 and 100 mg/l), gibberellic acid levels (500, 250 and 125 ppm), a...

An important question in the study of language production is the nature of the semantic information that speakers use to create syntactic structures. A common answer to this question assumes that thematic roles help to mediate the mapping from messages to syntax. However, research using structural priming has suggested that the construction of syntactic frames may be insensitive to variations i...

there are several methods to increase crops yield, including use of high quality seeds. seed priming is a simple and low-cost method to increase seed quality, if be done right, will lead to increasing plant performance and yield. seed priming treatment applied before planting to enhance germination parameters, seedling establishment and etc. primed seeds get some physiological and biochemical c...

A structural priming study examined whether the mapping between grammatical functions (e.g. subject) and thematic roles agent) persists across utterances. Specifically, we tested native Cantonese speakers are more likely to produce a standard subject–verb–object (SVO) active or passive sentence after repeating an in object–subject–verb (OSV) order where direct object (i.e. patient) is grammatic...
