Surfing the implicit wave

Article Abstract:

Research presented concerns perceptual-motor learning processes, focusing on an experiment involving implicit learning. Findings suggest that complex motor tasks can be associated with implicit learning, and that not disclosing information concerning the task appears to be more beneficial for task success than disclosing the information.

Experimental results suggest that implicit invariance learning is hyperspecific, as is true of other forms of implicit learning and memory. Cross-format transfer occurred only under conditions in which a specific response strategy was applicable.
