Résumé : Implicit learning and implicit memory both refer to the nonconscious effects that prior information processing may exert on subsequent behavior. Memory for a past event is implicit when it influences ongoing behavior in the absence of conscious recollection of that event. Learning is implicit when people are found to have become sensitive to the regularities shared by a stimulus domain in the absence of a correlated ability to report on the acquired knowledge. Both domains are characterized by continuing definitional, methodological, and theoretical debates about the nature of the differences between information processing with and without awareness. © 2009 Elsevier Inc.
