Unconscious Cognition Reclaimed
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent research has established several empirical results that are widely agreed to merit description in terms of unconscious cognition. These findings come from experiments that use indirect tests for immediate or long-term residues of barely perceptible, perceptible-but-unattended, or attended-but-forgotten events. Importantly, these wellestablished phenomena-insofar as they occur without initially involving focal attention-are limited to relatively minor cognitive feats. Unconscious cognition is now solidly established in empirical research, but it appears to be intellectually much simpler than the sophisticated agency portrayed in psychoanalytic theory. The strengthened position of unconscious cognitive phenomena can be related to their jit with the developing neural network (connectionist) theoretical framework in psychology. for a simpler (cognitively less sophisticated) view of unconscious cognition than that of psychoanalytic theory.

متن کاملDeveloping students' health by promoting attachment to place in school design: based on the archetype scheme

Architecture as a container of human behavior has a great impact on this matter. The organs of the building and the relationships that govern them are effective in th...
متن کاملExecutive control over unconscious cognition: attentional sensitization of unconscious information processing
Unconscious priming is a prototypical example of an automatic process, which is initiated without deliberate intention. Classical theories of automaticity assume that such unconscious automatic processes occur in a purely bottom-up driven fashion independent of executive control mechanisms. In contrast to these classical theories, our attentional sensitization model of unconscious information p...
متن کاملIs the unconscious smart or dumb?
How sophisticated is unconscious cognition? This is one of the most fundamental questions about the unconscious that has been posed by research psychologists over the past century. Anthony Greenwald takes a contemporary look at this classical problem and concludes that unconscious cognition is severely limited in its analytic capability. In response, other leading scholars agree that the realit...
متن کاملConscious control over the content of unconscious cognition.
Visual stimuli (primes) presented too briefly to be consciously identified can nevertheless affect responses to subsequent stimuli - an instance of unconscious cognition. There is a lively debate as to whether such priming effects originate from unconscious semantic processing of the primes or from reactivation of learned motor responses that conscious stimuli afford during preceding practice. ...
