Retrieval from semantic memory was examined by means of reaction times to property statements (e.g., sparrow has beak). The variables of interest were normatively defined property dominance (frequency), type of priming between related sentences (sparrow-sparrow vs. sparrow-robin), and separation or lag between related sentences. Statements asserting a high-dominant property (1) were verified more quickly than those containing low-dominant properties, (2) were primed by a preceding related sentence of either high or low dominance, and (3) revealed decay of priming from Lag 1 to 4. The differences between priming with and without stimulus repetition were nonsignificant when stimuli were treated as a random effect. In support of the Collins and Quillian (1972) model of semantic memory, the priming and property dominance factors interacted.
通过对属性陈述（例如，麻雀有喙）的反应时间来检查语义记忆的检索。感兴趣的变量是规范定义的属性优势（频率）、相关句子之间的启动类型（麻雀-麻雀与麻雀-知更鸟）以及相关句子之间的分离或滞后。断言具有高优势属性的陈述（1）比包含低优势属性的陈述验证得更快，（2）由具有高或低优势的先前相关句子启动，（3）从滞后 1 到 4 显示出启动的衰减。当将刺激视为随机效应时，刺激重复与无刺激重复之间的差异不显著。支持 Collins 和 Quillian（1972）的语义记忆模型，启动和属性优势因素相互作用。
