Hemispheric Differences in Strong versus Weak Semantic Priming: Evidence from Event-Related Brain Potentials
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Frishkoff, Gwen A. – Brain and Language, 2007
Goals: Research with lateralized word presentation has suggested that strong ("close") and weak ("remote") semantic associates are processed differently in the left and right cerebral hemispheres [e.g., Beeman, M. j., & Chiarello, C. (1998). Complementary right- and left-hemisphere language comprehension. "Current Directions in Psychological…

Lateralization of Object-Shape Information in Semantic Processing

Zwaan, Rolf A.; Yaxley, Richard H. – Cognition, 2004
An experiment was conducted to examine whether perceptual information, specifically the shape of objects, is activated during semantic processing. Subjects judged whether a target word was related to a prime word. Prime-target pairs that were not associated, but whose referents had similar shapes (e.g. LADDER-RAILROAD) yielded longer ''no''…
