Short Term Effects Of Repeated Masked Priming In Stem Completion Tasks, Anthony Van Andel
Short Term Effects Of Repeated Masked Priming In Stem Completion Tasks, Anthony Van Andel
Theses : Honours
This thesis examines the effect of time delay and intervening items on masked repetition studies with word stem completion tasks. In the first experiment a masked priming effect was obtained. The effect was strongest 500ms after the presentation of the prime, and decreasing in a linear trend seven seconds after the presentation of the prime. The second experiment found that interpolating a naming task between the masked prime and the stem completion task eliminated the effects of the repeated masked prime. This result is a failure to replicate previous research which found a masked repetition effect over a short delay …
