Abstract

How do we find out whether someone is conscious of some information or not? A simple answer is "We just ask them"! However, things are not so simple. Here, we review recent developments in the use of subjective and objective methods in implicit learning research and discuss the highly complex methodological problems that their use raises in the domain.
