Abstract
The deliberate application of a strategy can have unintended discriminative effects. It is argued that these effects or influences on discriminative r esponding are the source of automatic influences and can be dissociated fro m controlled influences under appropriate circumstances. Such automatic inf luences are often latent in the interaction between the memory structures a nd the strategies that participants bring to bear in many implicit learning tasks.
