If the target word is "Horse".
The word "Cow" is given as a cue.

If the target word is "Green".
The word "Grief" is given as a cue.

Positive priming is thought to be caused by spreading activation. This means that the first stimulus activates parts of a particular representation or association in memory just before carrying out an action or task. The representation is already partially activated when the second stimulus is encountered, so less additional activation is needed for one to become consciously aware of it.
