Registered Replication Report: Dijksterhuis and van Knippenberg (1998).

Abstract in brief

• The study aimed to replicate a 1998 experiment where priming with an intelligence-related category (professor) improved trivia test scores, but subsequent replications showed mixed results, including gender differences.
• A large-scale meta-analysis involving data from 23 laboratories with 4493 participants found no significant overall difference in trivia performance between the two priming conditions, and no effect based on gender.
• The results suggest that the original priming effect on intelligence and performance may not be as robust or consistent as initially thought.]
