Novel Insights into Statistical Learning
The brain has a powerful capacity for statistical learning–an ability to detect statistical regularities in the environment in order to make predictions and guide behaviour–often without conscious awareness. It has been claimed that statistical learning plays a key role in a range of everyday perceptual and cognitive processes including those associated with language. There is demonstration tha...
متن کاملRunning Head: CONSTRAINTS ON IMPLICIT STATISTICAL LEARNING Implicit Statistical Learning and Language Acquisition: Experience-Dependent Constraints on Learning
Acquiring spoken language involves implicitly learning the statistical relations among language units. In this chapter, we review recent behavioral and neurophysiological findings from our research group that illuminate the relation of this type of ‘implicit statistical learning’ (ISL) to language acquisition. First, we review evidence illustrating that ISL mechanisms enable the learner to pred...
متن کاملImplicit sequence learning in children.
The main purpose of the present study was to examine whether implicit learning abilities, assessed by means of a serial reaction time task, are present to the same extent in 6- and 10-year-old children as in adults. We also wondered whether the knowledge acquired after one learning session is retained after a 1-week delay. And finally, we studied the explicit knowledge developed by the children...
متن کاملStatistical learning and language acquisition.
Human learners, including infants, are highly sensitive to structure in their environment. Statistical learning refers to the process of extracting this structure. A major question in language acquisition in the past few decades has been the extent to which infants use statistical learning mechanisms to acquire their native language. There have been many demonstrations showing infants' ability ...
متن کاملTesting Statistical Learning Implicitly: A Novel Chunk-based Measure of Statistical Learning
Attempts to connect individual differences in statistical learning with broader aspects of cognition have received considerable attention, but have yielded mixed results. A possible explanation is that statistical learning is typically tested using the two-alternative forced choice (2AFC) task. As a meta-cognitive task relying on explicit familiarity judgments, 2AFC may not accurately capture i...
