    "title": "Assessing Masked Semantic Priming: Cursor Trajectory versus Response Time\nMeasures",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "Measuring response times has been a staple for evaluating\nmasked semantic priming. Its efficacy, however, has been\nchallenged on several grounds — reported effect sizes of\nthese studies are relatively small, and priming effects\npertaining to response time measures are difficult to be\nreplicated. Here, we report a complementary method —\nrecording trajectories of a computer cursor. Participants\njudged whether two digits were the same or different,\npreceded by a briefly presented masked prime. Each prime\nhad either positive or negative connotations, and the priming\neffects were evaluated either by response times or cursor\ntrajectories associated with the area under the curve. Results\nindicate that the effect size of the congruency effect measured\nby cursor trajectories (i.e. area under the curve) was far\ngreater than that measured by response times, suggesting that\nthe cursor trajectory measure is more sensitive to masked\nsemantic priming than the response time measure",
