Repetitionspriming
Repetition priming, also known as implicit memory or procedural priming, is a psychological phenomenon where exposure to a stimulus influences a person’s response to the same or similar stimulus later without conscious awareness. This form of priming enhances the speed and accuracy of recognizing or processing subsequent stimuli based on prior encounters. It is a type of implicit memory because individuals often remain unaware of the influence of their previous experience.
Repetition priming occurs across various sensory modalities and cognitive tasks, including visual, auditory, and lexical processing.
This phenomenon is believed to result from neural plasticity, where repeated exposure strengthens the neural pathways
Repetition priming is distinct from explicit memory, which involves conscious recall of information. It is generally
Overall, repetition priming underscores the brain's capacity to adapt and optimize processing efficiency through repeated exposure,
