Unlike the repetition and decay effects, this lexical boost effect does not appear to be mediated by the vowel category of the prime or target (although Figure 5 suggests a weak trend in this direction), as there were no significant three-way interactions between the prime shift index, target vowel category, and prime target same word ( p s > .12). 9 Taken together, these results indicate support for hypothesis 1, as we find repetition, decay, and lexical boost effects that are often taken to be key signatures of priming in speech.
