خلاصه	Evaluative priming, introduced by Fazio and colleagues in 1986, is the foundational reaction-time paradigm for measuring automatic attitudes. On each trial an attitude object (the prime) is briefly presented and is quickly followed by a clearly positive or negative target word that the participant categorizes as 'good' or 'bad' as fast as possible. When the prime and target share the same valence -- a liked object followed by a positive word -- responses are faster; when they mismatch, responses slow. This congruency effect reveals that merely seeing an attitude object automatically activates its associated evaluation, which then facilitates or interferes with judging the target. Because the attitude is inferred from response speed rather than self-report, evaluative priming gives a window onto spontaneous evaluations and became, in its 'bona fide pipeline' form, an early standard for measuring implicit attitudes including racial prejudice.	The goal priming paradigm tests whether activating a mental construct -- a trait concept, stereotype, or goal -- outside of awareness can directly shape subsequent behavior. In the classic demonstrations by Bargh, Chen, and Burrows in 1996, participants completed a seemingly unrelated language task containing words related to rudeness, politeness, or the elderly stereotype; afterward, primed participants behaved in line with the construct -- interrupting more, waiting longer, or walking more slowly -- without any awareness that the prime had influenced them. The paradigm extended the logic of priming from judgments to overt action, supporting the idea that much social behavior can be automatically guided by environmentally activated goals and constructs. It became a centerpiece of theories of automaticity, while also, in the 2010s, a focal point of replication debates that reshaped methodological standards in the field.
