Abstract
Far beyond declarative and non-declarative memories.
Highlights
According to general learning theory two major forms of learning can be observed across species
These single sequences have been distilled from the integrated memories of many events that happened at different times and that can be roughly classified as “restaurant visits,” including visits, e.g., to fast food and sushi restaurants
Given that no explicit intention exists to form a concept or to integrate similar events that happened at different times into a semantic concept, this process must be initiated unconsciously possibly due to a hidden concept formation algorithm that detects similarities between events that happened at different times and places
Summary
According to general learning theory two major forms of learning can be observed across species. Let us consider the following question: Can two events be associated or integrated into a linked mnemonic representation even if they happen at different times (with a delay of more than 1 min between the two events) and if one of these events is not detected consciously?
