The target was a picture that slowly and continuously became complete and the participants were required to press a key as soon as they knew what it was. Each target was preceded by a visual prime. The nature of this prime varied from very conceptual (e.g., the name of the picture's category) to very perceptual (e.g., a similar-shaped pictorial prime from a different category). Primes also included those that combined perceptual and conceptual information (e.g., names or images of the target picture). Across three experiments, conceptual primes were effective while the purely perceptual primes were not. Accordingly, we conclude that pictures in this type of task are identified primarily by conceptual processing, with perceptual processing contributing relatively little. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 金沢大学人間社会研究域歴史言語文化学系 / 金沢大学文学部}, pages = {515--540}, title = {Conceptual versus perceptual priming in incomplete picture identification}, volume = {34}, year = {2005} }
