Implicit learning is said to occur when someone learns about a complex stimulus without the intention of doing so, and in such a way that the knowledge is difficult to express. A number of studies have claimed to show evidence of implicit learning, but more recently, considerable debate has arisen over the extent to which cognitive tasks are learned implicitly. Most of the debate centers on the questions of how unconscious, and how abstract, is implicit knowledge. This book provides students and researchers with a self-contained and balanced summary of the various theoretical and empirical...

This book presents an overview of explicit knowledge and measured performance and attempts to clarify them in a coherent theoretical framework.

There is considerable debate over the extent to which cognitive tasks can be learned non-consciously or implicitly. In recent years a large number of studies have demonstrated a discrepancy between explicit knowledge and measured performance. This book presents an overview of these studies and attempts to clarify apparently disparate results by placing them in a coherent theoretical framework. It draws on evidence from neuropsychological and computational modelling studies as well as the many laboratory experiments.
Chapter one sets out the background to the large number of recent studies...
