Examples of priming in the following topics:

  • [PF content: The Prime Minister]

  • Factors

    • Such prime numbers are called prime factors.
    • Therefore, 2 and 3 are prime factors of 6.
    • However, 6 is not a prime factor.
    • In this case, we must reduce 6 to its prime factors as well.
    • We have now found factors for 12 that are all prime numbers.
  • Unconscious Perception

    • The perceptual learning of unconscious processing occurs through priming.
    • This is one of the simplest examples of priming.
    • One example of priming is in the childhood game Simon Says.
    • Simon is able to trick the players because of priming.
    • The participants who had been primed with rude words interrupted the investigator most often, and those primed with polite words did so the least often.
  • Analyzing 12-tone music

    • The prime form of the row is the main form to which all other forms are referenced.
    • Any row form that is the same as, or a strict transposition of, that opening prime form is also a prime form.
    • Once you have labeled the main prime form at the beginning of the piece, any subsequent row that is an exact transposition of that row is prime.
    • If the prime form begins on G (7), it is P7; on B (11), P11.
    • Its interval content, then, are the reverse of the prime forms.
  • Length Contraction

    • Let's look at the results with the aether again.If we have a rod of length $L_0$ in the primed frame what it is length in the unprimed frame.
    • Notices that someone in the primed frame would claim that the person measured the position of one end of the stick at a different time from the other.
  • Set Class and Prime Form (2)

    • Prime form for each set class is show in parenthesis.
    • The "Forte Number" (3-1, 9-1, etc.), often adjacent to the prime form, was given to each set class by the famous music theorist [Allen Forte][4], who was one of the first to describe the set class list.
    • The interval class vector next to each set class's prime form is particularly valuable.
  • Production

    • Offices, factories, farms and restaurants all rely upon equipment and machinery in one form or another to turn information and resources into goods and services and since many of these tools (and processes) can waste as much or more than they produce, they present a prime target for efficient, sustainable practices.
  • Dividing the lifespan

  • Rational Algebraic Expressions

    • For each of the denominators, we find all the prime factors—i.e., the prime numbers that multiply to give that number.
    • If you are not familiar with the concept of prime factors, it may take a few minutes to get used to. $2\cdot 2 \cdot 3$ is $12$ broken into its prime factors: that is, it is the list of prime numbers that when multiplied together yield 12.
    • Similarly, the prime factors of 30 are 2, 3, and 5.
    • Similarly, any number whose prime factors include a 2, a 3, and a 5 will be a multiple of 30.
    • Finding the prime factors of the denominators of two fractions enables us to find a common denominator.
