Bibliographical note

Two perspectives regarding the role of subjective measures of awareness as indicators of the implicit status of knowledge in artificial grammar learning are introduced and discussed. The subjective view (Dienes & Perner, 1999) holds that subjective measures of awareness based on confidence judgments may be valid indicators of the implicit status of knowledge, while the episodic-processing view (Whittlesea & Dorken, 1997) claims the opposite. The latter view holds that the attitude one develops toward one´s performance is not reducible to the implicit or explicit status of the representations that drive performance. Rather, the attitude one develops is a result of various factors during both learning and testing. Future research should focus on how processing strategies and expectational factors are related to subjective measures of awareness based on confidence judgments.
