近年来研究者分别从表征的质量和表征的外显等级两个方面探讨了内隐学习中表征与意识的关系。有关表征质量与意识的研究,清晰地揭示了影响表征进入意识的因素;而有关表征外显等级与意识的研究,则明确地阐明了什么样的表征才是有意识的。但表征与意识的关系是一个十分复杂的问题,目前仍存在着很大的争议,还有待于进一步的探讨。
Recently, the relationship between representations and consciousness in implicit learning has been explored from two separate aspects: the quality of representation and the hierarchy of explicitness of representation The study on quality of representation clearly showed the factors that influenced the availability of representations to consciousness. The study on the hierarchy of explicitness of representation clearly explained what sort of representation was conscious. However, the relationship between representation and consciousness is so complex that it is still a vexed question in the field of implicit learning.
