Semantic interference in picture naming is readily obtained when categorically related distractor words are displayed with picture targets; however, this is not typically the case when both primes and targets are words. Researchers have argued that to obtain semantic interference for word primes and targets, the prime must be shown for a sufficient duration, prime processing must be made difficult, and participants must attend to the primes. In this article, we used a novel procedure for prime presentation to investigate semantic interference in word naming. Primes were presented as the last word of a rapid serial visual presentation stream, with the target following 600-1,200 msec later. Semantic interference was observed for categorically related targets, whereas facilitation was found for associatively related targets.
当与图片目标类别相关的干扰词与图片目标一起显示时，很容易在图片命名中获得语义干扰；然而，当启动词和目标词都是单词时，情况通常并非如此。研究人员认为，为了在单词启动词和目标词中获得语义干扰，启动词必须呈现足够长的时间，启动词处理必须变得困难，并且参与者必须注意启动词。在本文中，我们使用了一种新颖的启动词呈现程序来研究单词命名中的语义干扰。启动词作为快速序列视觉呈现流的最后一个单词呈现，目标词在600 - 1200毫秒后出现。观察到与类别相关的目标词存在语义干扰，而与联想相关的目标词则出现促进作用。
