The goal of the present research consisted in trying to understand whether we process the meaning of words similarly when they are repeated or presented for the first time in an experiment. A number of studies have shown that repetition can disrupt the processing of meaning, resulting in a reduction or a suppression of semantic effects. I have investigated whether semantic effects such as congruity effects, concreteness or effects of semantic category would be maintained or suppressed for highly repeated words. Behavioral as well as event-related potentials (ERPs) measures were acquired. Results indicate that semantic processing and its neural bases are similar in repeated and non-repeated conditions, as long as participants are explicitly ...
