Priming
Priming is the influence of an earlier stimulus on subsequent processing, evaluation, or response, often without full awareness of this influence.
Definition
In psychology, priming means that prior exposure to a stimulus can facilitate or guide later cognitive responses. It may concern words, images, emotions, categories and associations. It is worth using this concept with caution, because not all popular claims about priming have equally strong empirical support.
