Document Summary
People get getter at performing a task (more accurate, quicker decisions) without justifying their decisions. Learning process through which we acquire unconscious knowledge. How can we test it: dynamic system control task, artificial grammar learning. Serial reaction time (srt) task: dynamic system control task. Participants interact w simulated system to achieve a certain goal. Rules of how the system works are unknown. Task: hire and fire workers to main lvl of sugar production. Underlying association/eqn of workers and production unknown. Participants improve over time but can"t explicitly state how variables are related: artificial grammar learning. Participants are exposed to letter strings and asked to memorize. Participants are exposed to letter strings and asked to memorize them. Nonsense syllabus; formed using rules of artificial grammar. Without awareness, participants dev a sense of which strings follow grammatical rules. Ppl can say what is right or wrong but not why. Participants press button when light goes on.
