Top-down attention amplifies priming without changing the time course of semantic processing. If top-down attention amplifies priming without changing the time course of subliminal semantic processing, cued trials would elicit larger congruency effects (i.e., AUC incongruent—AUC congruent) as compared to uncued trials overall; yet both cued and uncued trials would follow analogous time course—priming would occur earlier and decrease linearly as SOA increases. The AUC is measured by the number of pixels.
