Funded Activity Summary

Testing the multiple learning system model with eyeblink conditioning in normal and amnesic participants. This project will test whether learning of new material always requires active attention and effort, or whether some types of learning can occur automatically. We will use a laboratory task, eye blink conditioning, that has been claimed to occur automatically. The results will guide neuroscientists in their search for the brain mechanisms of learning and memory. They will also help to optimise strategies for education, training and clinical treatments where new material must be communicated as effectively as possible.
