Project description

The paradigm that Dr. Schmidt uses is unique in that it provides consistent and strong evidence for the unconscious learning of contingencies. During the stay of Dr. Schmidt in Ghent, we will modify his paradigm in such a way that it can be used to study the learning of evaluative contingencies, that is, contingencies between neutral and valenced stimuli.
