Meta-disciplinary definition of priming shows varying results in a diverse corpus, indicating complexities in application.

To establish a meta-disciplinary definition of priming and assess its validity across multiple fields.
Conducted a verbatim-grounded audit of 39 tagged papers across 9 disciplines.
Developed and tested a definition based on three characteristics: association, secondariness, modulation.
Implemented an automated lexical screening to identify failures in the definition.
Association and modulation were consistently supported across disciplines.
Secondariness failed when primes were directly processed, affecting 7 papers identified through lexical screening.
A discipline-span null confirmed that the priming cluster is not random but concentrated.
