在表示具体物体的词的大小判断任务中，潜意识呈现在目标之前的刺激会影响反应时，并取决于对启动和目标的反应是一致的还是不一致的(实验I)。这些发现反映了S.Dehaene等人的观点。(1998)，暗示质数被无意识地分类和处理到反应阶段。然而，这种效应并不适用于不在反应集中的素数(实验2)，在交错命名大小判断任务中，即使暴露在不在反应集中的素数，也不能诱发这种效应(实验3)。然而，这种效应从小写素数概括到同一组大写目标(实验4)，表明操作的抽象水平。研究结果表明，一致性效应不是由无意识的主分类产生的，而是由自动化的刺激-反应映射产生的。讨论了数字和词域之间的潜在差异。
In a size judgment task on words denoting concrete objects, subliminally presented stimuli that preceded the targets influenced response times and were dependent on whether responses to the prime and the target were congruent or incongruent (Experiment I). These findings, mirroring S. Dehaene et al. (1998), imply that primes are unconsciously categorized and processed to the response stage. However, the effect does not generalize to primes that are not in the response set (Experiment 2), and even exposure to primes not in the response set in an interleaved naming-size judgment task fails to induce it (Experiment 3). However, the effect generalizes from lowercase primes to the same set of uppercase targets (Experiment 4), suggesting an abstract level of operation. The findings suggest that rather than resulting from unconscious prime categorization, the congruity effect results from automatized stimulus-response mappings. Potential differences between the number and the word domain are discussed.
