This page appears to describe the term "semantic satiation", and a quick Google-count shows approx 4:1 usage of "semantic satiation". I suggest "semantic saturation" be renamed "semantic satiation" with an appropriate redirect on the old term. -- 74.137.108.115 (talk) 02:39, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Paragraph removed

I removed the following uncited paragraph which has been fact-tagged since June. It seems to be discussing an entirely different phenomenon.

The phenomenon was also shown to apply at the macro level by analyzing the life span of popular hit songs as given in weekly charts by trade magazines. Songs that were instant hits, taking only a few weeks to rise to the top, disappeared from the ratings charts faster than songs that took more weeks to rise to the top ten. The explanation was that the fast-rising hit songs get played on the radio more frequently (by all disc jockeys), creating semantic satiation of those songs in listeners more rapidly than songs that are introduced and played gradually.

Massed negative practice

This seems to be closely related to Massed negative practice, could the two articles share some information? AndreasBWagner (talk) 19:59, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Further reading section seems excessive

The further reading list could be more selective —Preceding unsigned comment added by Quorn3000 (talk • contribs) 20:55, 28 July 2010 (UTC)

• Doesn't seem to have gotten any smaller since your comment... I've added the {{Further reading cleanup}} template to the section now. --V2Blast (talk) 05:02, 4 January 2015 (UTC)

Popular culture

It seems as though the movie Pontypool would also be a good addition. I'm not doing it myself because this is not my area of expertise, but it did come to mind. Cheers! TwoSpear 01:52, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
