The Research On The Characteristics Of Implicit Learning Of Artificial Grammar

Implicit learning means unintentional, automatic acquisition of knowledge about structural relations between objects or events. It mainly characterizes in aimlessness, automation and so on. For its profound academic significance and comprehensive application in social cognition, school education, human and computer interaction etc., a member of cognitive psychologists focused attention upon implicit learning.This study adopted multi-factorial experimental designs, used bi-conditional artificial grammar as learning material. This study compared of distinguishing abilities of match group standing for implicit learning, edit group representing explicit learning, to explore the characters of implicit learning by different conditions and the relationship between implicit and explicit learning. The conclusions are the follows:1. Research proved the existence of implicit learning and it does better than explicit learning in discriminating grammatical strings versus ungrammatical strings while studying bi-conditional artificial grammar.2. The achievement of implicit learning under each condition is significantly higher than random level.3. The achievement of explicit learning is significantly higher than random level only when the learning time is 6 seconds and the learning amount is 80. Under other conditions, this won't occur.4. It has no obvious time distinct in the case of implicit learning.5. It has obvious time distinct in the case of explicit learning. There is significant difference in distinguishing abilities of explicit learning between 3 seconds and 6 seconds. When time is 6 seconds the performance is much better.6. It has obvious amount distinct in the case of implicit learning. There is significant difference in distinguishing abilities of implicit learning between 40 and 80 amounts. When amount is 80 the performance is much better.7. The interaction of learning manner and learning time is significant. When the time is 3 seconds, the achievement of implicit learning is significantly higher than those of explicit learning. When time is 6 seconds, there is no significant difference between the two manners.8. The interaction of learning manner, learning time and learning amount is significant.Only when the time is 6 seconds and amount is 80, there is no significant difference between implicit and explicit learning;under all other conditions, the achievement of implicit learning is significantly higher than those of explicit learning.
