Conscious and nonconscious information processing

International Symposium on Attention and Performance 1992 : Sicily, Italy) (15th : (Author). Umiltà, C. A. (Carlo Arrigo) (Added Author). Moscovitch, Morris, 1945- (Added Author).

Summary: During the past decade, evidence of dissociation between conscious and nonconscious information processing has emerged from the study of normal subjects and brain-damaged patients. The thirty-five original contributions in this book cover the latest work on this important topic across such traditional areas of research as vision, face recognition, spatial attention, control processes, semantic memory, episodic memory, and learning. Each section includes several experimental papers that present and evaluate the available empirical evidence in a given area. The book opens with the association lecture by George Mandler, "Hypermnesia, Incubation, and Mind Popping: On Remembering without Really Trying."
