“…During longer ISIs, the primes are off and generate retrospective activity only and hence also weak retroactive interference. When durations of Primes 1 and 2 are identical, we expect retroactive interference to be stronger than proactive interference (see Cowan, 2001;Haarmann & Usher, 2001), leading to UR effects stronger than RU effects. In the experimental literature, cases of equal values of short SOA1 and SOA2 show results varying from significant RU and UR priming (e.g., Angwin, Chenery, Copland, Murdoch, & Silburn, 2005;Balota & Paul, 1996;Chenery, Copland, McGrath, & Savage, 2004) to significant UR priming only (e.g., Masson, 1995;Thérouanne & Denhière, 2002).…”
