Previous studies of binocular rivalry have shown that some aspects of a phenomenally suppressed stimulus remain available for visual analysis. The question remains, however, whether this analysis extends to the case of semantic information. This experiment examines that question using a semantic-priming paradigm in which prime words were briefly flashed to an eye during either dominance or suppression phases of binocular rivalry. Reaction times on a lexical-decision task were significantly shortened (the semantic-priming effect) only when prime words were presented to an eye during dominance; suppression acted to impair word recognition and to eliminate semantic priming. These results are inconsistent with certain cognitive models of binocular rivalry.
以往关于双眼竞争的研究表明，现象学上被抑制的刺激的某些方面仍可用于视觉分析。然而，问题仍然存在，即这种分析是否扩展到语义信息的情况。本实验使用语义启动范式来研究这个问题，在该范式中，启动词在双眼竞争的优势或抑制阶段期间短暂地闪现在一只眼前。只有当启动词在优势阶段呈现给一只眼时，词汇判断任务的反应时间才会显著缩短（语义启动效应）；抑制作用会损害单词识别并消除语义启动。这些结果与某些双眼竞争的认知模型不一致。
