Can you learn without knowing it? This controversial and much
debated question forms the basis of this collection of essays as
the authors discuss whether the measurable changes in behaviour
that result from learning can ever remain entirely unconscious.
Three issues central to the topic of implicit learning are raised.
Firstly, the extent to which learning can be unconscious, and
therefore implicit, is considered. Secondly, theories are developed
regarding the nature of knowledge acquired in implicit learning
situations. Finally, the idea that there are two separable
independent processing systems in the brain, for implicit and
explicit learning, is considered. Implicit Learning and
Consciousness challenges conventional wisdom and presents the most
up-to-date studies to define, quantify and test the predictions of
the main models of implicit learning. The chapters include a
variety of research from computer modelling, experimental
psychology and neural imaging to the clinical data resulting from
work with amnesics. The result is a topical book that provides an
overview of the debate on implicit learning, and the various
philosophical, psychological and neurological frameworks in which
it can be placed. It will be of interest to undergraduates,
postgraduates and the philosophical, psychological and modeling
research community.
