The role of the left and right hemisphere was examined during semantic priming by antonyms, remote associates, and unrelated words. Targets presented directly to the left hemisphere showed an early facilitation and a late developing inhibition, while targets presented directly to the right hemisphere showed a late developing facilitation of strong and weak associations and little evidence of inhibition. When a visual cue was given prior to each target word, reaction times were facilitated equally in both visual fields and for all prime target relationships. When the priming task was combined with shadowing, reaction times generally increased and all evidence of inhibition in left hemisphere processing disappeared. This supported the idea that the inhibition found in the left hemisphere was due to its interaction with the anterior attention network.
在通过反义词、远程联想词和不相关的词进行语义启动时，研究了左右半球的作用。直接呈现给左半球的目标表现出早期促进和后期发展的抑制，而直接呈现给右半球的目标则表现出强关联和弱关联的后期发展促进，几乎没有抑制的证据。当在每个目标词之前给出视觉提示时，两个视野的反应时间都得到同等促进，并且所有的启动目标关系都是如此。当将启动任务与跟读结合使用时，反应时间通常会增加，并且左半球处理过程中所有抑制的证据都消失了。这支持了这样一种观点，即左半球发现的抑制是由于其与前注意网络的相互作用。
