两个关系启动实验的结果表明语义和算术关系之间存在自动类比协调。表示对象集的单词对在引发“强制”激活加法事实的任务中充当素数（5 + 3 激活 8；J. LeFevre、J. Bisanz 和 L. Mrkonjic，1988）。启动词之间的语义关系与加法结构要么一致，要么不一致（M. Bassok、V. M. Chase 和 S. A. Martin，1998）。当数字由与加法对齐的分类相关单词（郁金香-雏菊）启动时，就会发生加法事实的强制激活，但当数字由不相关单词（hens-radios，实验 1）或功能相关单词（记录-歌曲，实验 2）启动时，加法事实的强制激活不会发生，这些单词与加法不一致。这些发现支持了自动类比启动的可行性（B. A. Spellman、K. J. Holyoak 和 R. G. Morrison，2001），并强调了算术应用与心算理论解释的相关性。
Results from 2 relational-priming experiments suggest the existence of an automatic analogical coordination between semantic and arithmetic relations. Word pairs denoting object sets served as primes in a task that elicits "obligatory" activation of addition facts (5 + 3 activates 8; J. LeFevre, J. Bisanz, & L. Mrkonjic, 1988). Semantic relations between the priming words were either aligned or misaligned with the structure of addition (M. Bassok, V. M. Chase, & S. A. Martin, 1998). Obligatory activation of addition facts occurred when the digits were primed by categorically related words (tulips-daisies), which are aligned with addition, but did not occur when the digits were primed by unrelated words (hens-radios, Experiment 1) or by functionally related words (records-songs, Experiment 2), which are misaligned with addition. These findings lend support to the viability of automatic analogical priming (B. A. Spellman, K. J. Holyoak, & R. G. Morrison, 2001) and highlight the relevance of arithmetic applications to theoretical accounts of mental arithmetic.
