Parametric conditions under which repetition priming induces choice preference. (A) Experimental Series #2 design. The order in which both versions of Experiment #1 [Subliminal condition: 20 ms face presentation; Lasting condition: 2000 ms] appear, as well as Control Trial position, were all randomised for each participant. (B–E) Subliminal condition: (B) Choice Preference as the proportion of the chosen face over a total of 3 trials. (C) Response Time separated by the chosen face frequency (i) or by group (ii). (D) Response Time, desegregated by group, of Control trials. (E) Probability Distribution of reported confidence. (F–I) Lasting condition: (F) Choice Preference as the proportion of the chosen face over a total of 3 trials. (G) Response Time separated by the chosen face frequency (i) or by group (ii). (H) Response Time, desegregated by group, of Control trials. (I) Probability Distribution of reported confidence. Areas show the density probability distribution; yellow and grey lines show the cumulative probability. Differences in the cumulative probabilities were analysed by the Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) Test: the arrow revealed the highest distance between distributions. Significances were also analysed by bootstrapping. Bars shown mean ± SEM. The grey dashed line represents the expected proportion for random choice (null hypothesis). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
