Freedberg, Michael; Schacherer, Jonathan; Hazeltine, Eliot – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
Reward has been shown to change behavior as a result of incentive learning (by motivating the individual to increase their effort) and instrumental learning (by increasing the frequency of a particular behavior). However, Palminteri et al. (2011) demonstrated that reward can also improve the incidental learning of a motor skill even when…

van Osselaer, Stijn M. J.; Janiszewski, Chris; Cunha Jr., Marcus – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2004
Recent studies involving nonlinear discrimination problems suggest that stimuli in human associative learning are represented configurally with narrow generalization, such that presentation of stimuli that are even slightly dissimilar to stored configurations weakly activate these configurations. The authors note that another well-known set of…

Hall, James W. – 1968
The four experiments of this study represent the first stage on a program of research designed to clarify the nature and development of certain implicit verbal behavior and to move toward application of this knowledge to school learning situations and problems. Specifically, the experiments were created to investigate some aspect of the implicit…
