Abstract

Orthographic priming in word fragment completion was investigated when word fragment targets were initially presented briefly to the left or right hemisphere(LH or RH). The targets were orthographically-related or meaning(and orthographically)-related components of prime words. Results showed that within-modality orthographic priming was obtained only when targets were presented to the RH (Experiment 1), but neither cross-modality (Experiment 2) nor cross-font (Experiment 3) orthographic priming was obtained at any hemispheric presentation. In contrast, cross-modality and cross-font priming were obtained for meaning-related component targets at both LH and RH presentation. These findings indicate that orthographic priming effects are mediated by form-specific representations which are encoded more effectively in the RH.
