The Priming Conditions. Binocular rivalry (BR) alternations were assessed through repeated 25-s baseline measurements preceding each priming condition. After priming, a 10-s BR stimulation phase served as a test condition to evaluate the modulatory effect of priming. (a) Stimulus Driven Priming (SDP): After the baseline rivalry stimulus, each eye was presented with gratings moving in the same direction for 7 s. (b) Internally-Generated Priming: After a 2-s cue in which both eyes viewed gratings moving in the same direction, participants engaged in one of two priming tasks. Visual Imagery Priming (VISP): Participants were instructed to generate a mental image of the cued stimulus. Conceptual Priming (CONP): Participants were asked to think about the movement direction without forming a visual mental image.
