Negative priming effects in children engaged in nonspatial tasks: evidence for early development of an intact inhibitory mechanism.

VE Pritchard, E Neumann - Developmental psychology, 2004 - psycnet.apa.org
Three experiments are reported that examined conceptual negative priming effects in
children 5 to 12 years of age. Experiment 1 used a negative priming variant of a flanker task …

Effect of a defining feature on negative priming across the life span

PM Simone, EB Mccormick - Visual Cognition, 1999 - Taylor & Francis
Negative priming paradigms examine selective attention, and may be explained by
inhibitory processes (eg Tipper, 1985). Our study examines inhibition in children (6-11 …

Avoiding the potential pitfalls of using negative priming tasks in developmental studies: Assessing inhibitory control in children, adolescents, and adults.

VE Pritchard, E Neumann - Developmental psychology, 2009 - psycnet.apa.org
Despite being ignored, visual distractors often produce traceable negative priming (NP)
effects that can be used to investigate inhibitory processes. Robust NP effects are typically …

Children do show negative priming: Further evidence for early development of an intact selective control mechanism.

C Frings, S Feix, U Röthig, C Brüser… - Developmental …, 2007 - psycnet.apa.org
Reactions to stimuli that were shortly before presented as distractors are usually slowed
down; this phenomenon is known as negative priming. Negative priming is an accepted …

Negative priming effects that are bigger than a breadbox: Attention to distractors does not eliminate negative priming, it enhances it

PA MacDonald, S Joordens, KN Seergobin - Memory & Cognition, 1999 - Springer
In a series of experiments, we examined the effect of requiring subjects to attend to
distractors in a test of negative priming. This was accomplished by using a referent size …

The effects of cueing target location and response mode on interference and negative priming using a visual selection paradigm

A Richards - The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology …, 1999 - Taylor & Francis
Two experiments are reported that examine the effects of cueing the location of a target in
the prime display on interference and subsequent negative priming. The prime and probe …

Selective attention: a reevaluation of the implications of negative priming.

B Milliken, S Joordens, PM Merikle… - Psychological review, 1998 - psycnet.apa.org
The notion that inhibitory processes play a critical role in selective attention has gained wide
support. Much of this support derives from studies of negative priming. The authors note that …

The role of perceptual load in negative priming.

N Lavie, E Fox - Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human …, 2000 - psycnet.apa.org
Negative priming (NP) effects from irrelevant distractors were assessed as a function of
perceptual load in the processing of prime targets. Participants searched for a target letter …

Investigation a memory-based account of negative priming: Support for selection-feature mismatch.

PA MacDonald, S Joordens - Journal of Experimental Psychology …, 2000 - psycnet.apa.org
Using typical and modified negative priming tasks, the selection-feature mismatch account of
negative priming was tested. In the modified task, participants performed selections on the …

Semantic negative priming in picture categorization and naming

MF Damian - Cognition, 2000 - Elsevier
Ignoring a particular stimulus can hamper subsequent attended processing of the same
stimulus, a phenomenon known as 'negative priming'. Previous research has yielded partial …
