Abstract

In the human brain, cognitive-control processes are generally consid- ered distinct from the unconscious mechanisms elicited by subliminal priming. Here, we show that cognitive control engaged in situations of response con!ict interacts with the negative (inhibitory) phase of subliminal priming. Thu...
