Abstract
The effect of subliminal and supraliminal accessory stimulation on the Stencil Design Test was studied. 30 db below threshold and 35 db above threshold resulted in performance decrement, while 10 db below threshold and 60 db above threshold led to facilitation. Comparison with past research provides evidence that accessory stimulation differentially affects various components of the task.Keywords
