    Summary

    This study rebuts Spence & Smith's (1977) critique of subliminal perception experiments. The analysis shows replications were not less sensitive, challenging prior conclusions on subliminal effects.

    Area of Science:

    • Cognitive Psychology
    • Psychology

    Background:

    • Spence & Smith (1977) critiqued subliminal perception replications.
    • The critique questioned the sensitivity of replication studies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate and rebut the claim that replications were less sensitive.
    • To reassess the validity of critiques on subliminal perception research.

    Main Methods:

    • Statistical evaluation of replication sensitivity.
    • Comparative analysis of original and replicated experiment data.

    Main Results:

    • The basis of Spence & Smith's critique is deemed conjectural.
    • Evidence rebuts the claim of reduced sensitivity in replication studies.

    Conclusions:

    • The critique by Spence & Smith (1977) lacks a strong empirical foundation.
    • Replication studies maintain sensitivity to subliminal perception effects.
