Implicit Learning of Combined Sequences

Introduction. The study is concerned with revealing specific aspects of use of implicit knowledge when combined sequence is learned. The paper focuses on the problem of unconscious perception of multiple information. Unlike most of other researches in implicit learning, the present study probes into...
