“…For example, Slowiaczek et al (2000) found facilitative priming of words by primes that overlapped finally (similar to our initial-deviation cases, but with pseudoword primes and real word targets, e.g., peef – beef ). Other research examining shared phonological information (Hamburger & Slowiaczek, 1996, 1998) has found similar facilitation for final overlap versus inhibition for primes and targets that overlap initially (similar to our final-deviation cases, but with pseudoword primes and real word targets, e.g., jop – job ). The results of our first two experiments (inhibition regardless of position) clearly contrast with the pattern found in the immediate form priming literature.…”

“…The results of our long-term priming tasks can be compared with research examining the immediate form priming of similar pairs. Researchers examining these immediate effects have found a consistent asymmetry for the two cases, with inhibition for finally deviant pairs and facilitation for initially deviant pairs (Hamburger & Slowiaczek, 1996, 1998; Slowiaczek, McQueen, Soltano, & Lynch, 2000). If immediate processes and long-term processes are similar, we might expect a similar pattern to surface.…”

When a listener hears a word (beef), current theories of spoken word recognition posit the activation of both lexical (beef) and sublexical (/b/, /i/, /f/) representations. No lexical representation can be settled on for an unfamiliar utterance (peef). The authors examined the perception of nonwords (peef) as a function of words or nonwords heard 10-20 min earlier. In lexical decision, nonword recognition responses were delayed if a similar word had been heard earlier. In contrast, nonword processing was facilitated by the earlier presentation of a similar nonword (baff-paff). This pattern was observed for both word-initial (beef-peef), and word-final (job-jop) deviation. With the word-in-noise task, real word primes (beef) increased real word intrusions for the target nonword (peef), but only consonant-vowel (CV) or vowel-consonant (VC) intrusions were increased with similar pseudoword primes (baff-paff). The results across tasks and experiments support both a lexical neighborhood view of activation and sublexical representations based on chunks larger than individual phonemes (CV or VC sequences).

“…This is what would be necessary in order to measure a condition-specific change in correlation/coupling cleanly, with correlation/coupling between two brain regions being calculated over the set of individual stimulus responses in each experimental condition (e.g., novel versus repeated). One solution would be to use a blocked design with no temporal overlap of the novel and repeated conditions, although that has wellknown downsides, creating problems of interpretation with respect to strategic effects and differences in attentional state (e.g., D'Esposito, Zarahn, & Aguirre, 1999;Hamburger & Slowiaczek, 1998). A better 236 GOTTS, CHOW, MARTIN solution would be to space individual stimuli far enough apart such that the peaks of the BOLD responses are no longer overlapping (,8-10 s, closer to a "slow" eventrelated design; e.g., Bandettini & Cox, 2000), still permitting randomly interleaved conditions.…”

Gotts, Chow and Martin provide a very nice review of repetition priming and suppression that reaches a compelling conclusion-we need to look more closely at synchronization in learning and priming. Indeed, current modeling work focuses on this issue-namely, the dynamic causal modeling of electrophysiological responses to address the role of synchrony in Bayesian explaining away. This commentary revisits the nature and relationships among the four theories in Gotts et al. and nuances some of their empirical predictions. In particular, I emphasize precision or uncertainty in predictive coding as a unifying consideration.

Stimulus repetition in identification tasks leads to improved behavioral performance ("repetition priming") but attenuated neural responses ("repetition suppression") throughout task-engaged cortical regions. While it's clear that this pervasive brain-behavior relationship reflects some form of improved processing efficiency, the exact form that it takes remains elusive. In this Discussion Paper, we review four different theoretical proposals that have the potential to link repetition suppression and priming, with a particular focus on a proposal that stimulus repetition affects improved efficiency through enhanced neural synchronization. We argue that despite exciting recent work on the role of neural synchronization in cognitive processes such as attention and perception, similar studies in the domain of learning and memory - and priming, in particular - have been lacking. We emphasize the need for new studies with adequate spatiotemporal resolution, formulate several novel predictions, and discuss our ongoing efforts to disentangle the current proposals.
