AI Article Synopsis
- Visual stimuli that are not consciously seen can still influence how we respond to later stimuli, leading to what's called an inverse priming effect.
- When the prime (the first stimulus) and target (the second stimulus) are congruent, responses are slower and more often incorrect, while incongruent pairs lead to faster and more accurate responses.
- Research using the psychological refractory period (PRP) paradigm indicates that these inverse priming effects arise from perceptual processes rather than from central or motor execution levels.
Article Abstract
Visual stimuli (primes) that are made invisible by masking can affect motor responses to a subsequent target stimulus. When a prime is followed by a mask which is followed by a target stimulus, an inverse priming effect (or negative compatibility effect) has been found: Responses are slow and frequently incorrect when prime and target stimuli are congruent, but fast and accurate when prime and target stimuli are incongruent. To functionally localize the origins of inverse priming effects, we applied the psychological refractory period (PRP-) paradigm which distinguishes a perceptual level, a central bottleneck, and a level of motor execution. Two dual-task experiments were run with the PRP-paradigm to localize the inverse priming effect relative to the central bottleneck. Together, results of the Effect-Absorption and the Effect-Propagation Procedure suggest that inverse priming effects are generated by perceptual mechanisms. We suggest two perceptual mechanisms as the source of inverse priming effects.

: In this study we analyzed the perceived effectiveness of cannabidiol (CBD) in adult women with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). : We conducted an online cross-sectional survey which assessed disease severity and quality of life (QOL) in women with IBD (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) who used CBD versus those who did not. The survey included: the Harvey-Bradshaw Index, Partial Mayo Score, Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire, Bristol Stool Scale, and the Prime Screen Short Food Frequency Questionnaire.

Background: Recurrence of gingival pigmentation following depigmentation procedures is common, raising the question of the influence of an underlying cause, if any. Melanin, a non-hemoglobin-derived brown pigment, is the most common endogenous pigment contributing to gingival pigmentation. Hemoglobin derivatives are among the other prime pigments that contribute to gingival color.

Background: Periportal fibrosis is a severe morbidity caused by both current and past exposure to intestinal schistosomes. We aimed to assess the association between current infection status and intensity of Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma japonicum, or Schistosoma mekongi with periportal fibrosis.
Methods: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, Global Health, Global Index Medicus, and MEDLINE from database inception to June 18, 2024.
Development and initial validation of the implicit internalized sexual orientation stigma affect misattribution procedure.
Front Psychol
November 2024
Department of Psychology, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC, United States.
Introduction: This article describes the development and initial validation of a measure of implicit internalized stigma among queer people, the Implicit Internalized Sexual Orientation Stigma Affect Misattribution Procedure (Internal-SOS-AMP), a computer-administered sequential priming procedure.
Methods: The creation of the Internal-SOS-AMP involved a mixed-methods approach, including a literature review, expert interviews, stimuli selection and pilot testing, data collection from a large sample, reliability testing, correlational analyses, and confirmatory factor analysis. Psychometric testing was conducted with a national sample of 500 queer adults who completed two waves of data collection.
Independent Effects of Emotional Expression and Group Membership in the Evaluative Priming Task.
Exp Psychol

Psychology Department, Saarland University, Saarbrücken, Germany.
Research on automatic evaluative responses to faces varying in emotional expression and ethnicity has yielded conflicting results. Some paradigms, like the Approach/Avoidance task, demonstrated interactive evaluation. In contrast, recent studies using the Evaluative Priming Task (EPT) yielded independent effects of expression and ethnicity.
