Figure 1. Experimental design and behavioral results.

Figure 1

(A) Schematic representation of the experimental task and the stimuli. Primes could be congruent (or incongruent) with the semantic meaning or response-mapping of the target (50% trials are CO, 25% trials are SI, 25% trials are RI). Primes could be presented briefly (29 ms, strongly masked primes) or longer (143 ms, weakly masked primes). (B) Examples of trials. (C) Mean reaction times (RTs, upper panel) and mean error rates (ERs, lower panel) for CO, SI and RI trials under different levels of conflict awareness. Error bars reflect the standard error of the mean. CO = Congruent; SI = Semantic Incongruent; RI = Response Incongruent. Note: In the actual experiment the background of the computer screen was gray, not black.
