Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 心理學系認知科學碩士班 === 101 === To what extent unconscious information can be process and integrated is still of great debate. Backward masking (BM) and interocular suppression had been widely used to probe this problem for a long time. But the cross form effect of word and picture remain unclear. In this dissertation we applied CFS paradigm to study this problem. The difference of response time (RT) to breakthrough the suppression under congruent and incongruent condition was used as an indicator of the effect of semantic integration. We supposed that perception may occur by multilevel neuro circuit connection of bottom-up and top-down information to achieve semantic integration of word and picture . However our results did not showed significant congruency effect of picture to word and no evidence of integrated effect or accumulation effect in cross-form (word-picture-word) condition. The absence of congruent effect of the stimuli from different form may implicit either failure in neural information transformation or failure in integrated with top down information. At last we would like to make some modifications of our paradigm for future research in this topic.
