In 3 cross-modal priming experiments, we investigated whether access to a word's meaning is affected by the semantic context in which it is heard or is exhaustive and context-independent. We probed access of nonassociated semantic properties and normatively associated words before and after prime offset. Whereas associated targets were primed context-independently, access to semantic property targets was affected by the sentential context. Semantic property targets showed greater priming in a sentence biasing to a specific semantic property than in a neutral condition, even when this bias made the target property irrelevant rather than relevant. These results cannot be accounted for by current exhaustive access or context-dependency theories of lexical access.
在3个跨模态启动实验中，我们研究了对一个单词意义的通达是受其被听到时的语义语境影响，还是全面且与语境无关的。我们在启动刺激消失前后探测了非关联语义属性和规范关联单词的通达情况。虽然关联目标在语境独立的情况下被启动，但对语义属性目标的通达受句子语境的影响。语义属性目标在偏向特定语义属性的句子中比在中性条件下表现出更大的启动效应，即使这种偏向使目标属性不相关而非相关。当前关于词汇通达的全面通达或语境依赖理论无法解释这些结果。
