Abstract
Conscious processes have a complex relationship to skilled motor performanc e. Past work has shown that some types of motor skill can be learned withou t any contribution from conscious processes. New work indicates that if tho se unconscious processes are disabled, conscious processes might step in to make up for the deficit.
