[Activating effect of various kinds of semantic knowledge].
The question if preactivation effects are to be observed during the within-conceptual storage of knowledge, when the prime is a general term or a peripheral term, was tested with the aid of the priming instrument. The primary effect appears only for the peripheral term-relation when the prime is presented for an interval of 1000 ms. During the between-conceptual storage, the central meaning of the predicate for active knowledge could not be confirmed. The predicate as prime led to no significant preactivation when a matched object-case was presented.
