Semantic priming has been a focus of research in the cognitive
sciences for more than thirty years and is commonly used as a tool
for investigating other aspects of perception and cognition, such
as word recognition, language comprehension, and knowledge
representations. Semantic Priming: Perspectives from Memory and
Word Recognition examines empirical and theoretical advancements in
the understanding of semantic priming, providing a succinct,
in-depth review of this important phenomenon, framed in terms of
models of memory and models of word recognition. The first section
examines models of semantic priming, including spreading activation
models, the verification model, compound-cue models, distributed
network models, and multistage activation models (e.g.
interactive-activation model). The second section examines issues
and findings that have played an especially important role in
testing models of priming and includes chapters on the following
topics: methodological issues (e.g. counterbalancing of materials,
choice of priming baselines); automatic vs. strategic priming;
associative vs. "pure" semantic priming; mediated priming;
long-term semantic priming; backward priming; unconscious priming;
the prime-task effect; list context effects; effects of word
frequency, stimulus quality, and stimulus repetition; and the
cognitive neuroscience of semantic priming. The book closes with a
summary and a discussion of promising new research directions. The
volume will be of interest to a wide range of researchers and
students in the cognitive sciences and neurosciences.
