六个实验探讨了多个相关素数对命名、词汇决策和相关性判断性能的组合影响。素数要么收敛于单一语义表示(例如,LION-STRIPES-TIGER),要么发散到不同的语义表示(例如,KIDNEY-PIANO-ORGAN)。 2个相关素数的促进影响可以通过以下影响的总和来很好地预测:(a)对于收敛素数和发散素数,(b)在词汇决策和命名中,(c)在不同的素数-目标刺激开始异步性中,以及(d)在增加启动效应的目标退化条件下。相关性判断任务产生了收敛素数条件的加性启动模式;然而,对于不同的素数条件,发现了素数不足的素数启动模式。讨论的重点是注意力系统的作用,它调节用于执行给定任务的信息类型。
Six experiments addressed the combinatorial influence of multiple related primes in naming, lexical decision and relatedness judgment performance. Primes either converged on a single semantic representation (e.g., LION-STRIPES-TIGER) or diverged onto distinct semantic representations (e.g., KIDNEY-PIANO-ORGAN). The facilitatory influence of 2 related primes was well predicted by the sum of the influences from the single-related-prime conditions (a) for both convergent and divergent primes, (b) in lexical-decision and naming, (c) across varying prime-target stimulus onset asynchronies, and (d) under target-degradation conditions that increased the priming effects. The relatedness-judgment task yielded an additive pattern of priming for convergent prime conditions; however, an underadditive pattern of priming was found for divergent prime conditions. Discussion focuses on the role of attentional systems that modulate the type of information used to perform a given task.
