Abstract

AbstractBinocular rivalry is a bistable perception that occurs when two dissimilar stimuli are presented to each eye. Recent studies have demonstrated that the reaction time to target words under binocular rivalry was shortened when semantically related prime words were presented supraliminally (Costello, Jiang, Baartman, McGlennen, & He, 2009). We investigated whether three types of priming (repetition, semantic, and cross‐script) occurred from the prime words presented under binocular rivalry, by using continuous flash suppression paradigm (Tsuchiya, Koch, Gilroy, & Blake, 2006). The prime words presented to the suppressed eye invoked repetition and cross‐script priming, but not semantic priming. The results suggested that the stimuli presented to the suppressed eye underwent shape and phonological level processing, but not semantic level processing.
