Document Summary

Implicit learning/memory: memory outside of conscious awareness. Indirect, not implicit, because no test is process pure: tests that do not explicitly require people to remember. Implicit memory: process dissociation, priming, memory under anesthesia. Two memory systems: recollective (explicit) memory participant is aware of a particular learning episode that should be recalled. Implicit memory participant is not aware of the particular learning episode that should be recalled. Implicit memory: direction of processing, bottom-up processing, aka data-driven processing, processing driven by the environment t, more influences by implicit memory, top-down processing, aka conceptually driven processing, processing driven by knowledge, more influenced by explicit memory. Experimental logic: direct tests measure explicit memory. Logic (dissociation) implicit memory is observed when direct tests show no memory, while indirect tests do show memory. Priming tulving study: study learn list of 96 words, test (1 hour) word-fragment completion task (indirect test) or recognition test (direct test) on.
