Abstract: Repetition priming paradigm in two rhesus monkeys was set up using three categories of stimuli (face, figure, food) in present study. The present study suggested that the features of this paradigm are as follows: 1. three sequential steps (concurrent discrimination, successive discrimination and repetition priming paradigm) are included; 2. It is effective to set up a repetition-priming paradigm that human and animal can share in order to explore the relativity between phenomena of repetition suppression observed in animals and priming phenomena; 3. learning time of repetition priming paradigm in monkey is category-dependent. This study discussed the influencing factors and importance of setting up the priming paradigm in monkey.

Key words: Rhesus monkey, concurrent discrimination, successive discrimination, repetition priming paradigm
