Self-prime Facilitation–2.71 (44.68)[–14.39; 8.97]18.98 (51.90)[6.94; 31.03]
Other-prime Facilitation–0.62 (41.44)[–10.57; 9.33]8.02 (40.89)[–18.28; 2.25]
Neutral-prime Facilitation1.81(35.99)[–6.97; 10.59]3.04 (36.67)[–6.02; 12.09]
Unconditional Facilitation–0.51 (31.51)[–7.92; 6.90]4.67 (29.69)[–2.97; 12.31]

[i] Note: Sequential priming task scores are indicated in milliseconds.

For all criteria, all positive scores indicate a preference for Ben compared to JimJam.
