Abstract
Two experiments investigate the effect of phrase structure priming on sentence production latencies. Repetition priming of sentence initial noun phrase structure has been demonstrated in an on-line picture description task. Experiments 1 and 2 demonstrate this priming effect to be short lived. No priming survives the addition of one intervening unrelated trial. This finding contrasts with the more persistent effects recently demonstrated in off-line picture description tasks. This contrast is attributed to different loci for the two effects.
