Abstract Most contemporary models of consciousness predict that repeated presentation of subliminal stimuli can increase the level of conscious perception. In this study, the effect of repeated subliminal stimuli was explored by repeating masking paradigms, and the effect of presentation position was further explored. The results showed that： （1） With the increase of the number of repetitions, the level of consciousness perception of the target number also increased significantly. （2） The presentation position had a significant effect on the level of consciousness perception, with the target number presented at the end having a higher consciousness perception. These results suggest that the level of consciousness perception increases with the repetition of subliminal stimuli. Visual data of subliminal stimuli created by masking can be stored and accumulate to elicit clear perception.
