What are cognitive priming effects?

Answer

priming means an the influence of an unimportant stimulus to a task. I.e. a task where you have to decide if a presented word is spelled correct or not the mean reacton time for a word like Eagle would be faster if the word Bird was presented shortly before. Bird activates Parts of the memory associated with bird (i.e. eagle) so a task with Eagle can be answered faster. the priming effect is the mean difference in reaction time to eagle with bird presented before compared to eagle with some unrelated word before. primingeffects can although be expressed in compared mean error rates in a task. That is a very brief answer, but i hope it gives a general idea about the base priming paradigm.
