【摘要】熟能生巧几乎在所有知觉任务中都成立,但是对于知觉改进是如何累积的仍然是未知的。本文中,我们提出了一个多成分理论框架对知觉学习中长期过程和短期过程进行建模。将该框架应用于49名成年人被试在七项知觉任务中的逐块学习曲线,我们识别出在大多数任务中普遍存在的长期一般学习和会话内(within-session)再学习。更重要的是,我们还在游标偏移辨别任务(vernier-offset discrimination), 面孔方位辨别任务(face-view discrimination)和声音频率辨别任务(auditory-frequency discrimination)中发现了会话间(between-session)遗忘;视觉形状搜索任务(visual shape search)中的会话间离线增益(off-line gain);以及在对比侦测任务(contrast detection task)中同时发现了会话内适应,会话间遗忘和离线增益。vernier-offset discrimination和视觉形状搜索任务的主要结果在一个新的实验中被复制。多成分模型提供了一个理论框架来识别知觉学习中各个成分的过程,以及为改善正常和临床人群的知觉学习提供了一个潜在工具。

[Abstract] Practice makes perfect in almost all perceptual tasks, but how perceptual improvements accumulate remains unknown. Here, we developed a multicomponent theoretical framework to model contributions of both long- and short-term processes in perceptual learning. Applications of the framework to the block-by-block learning curves of 49 adult participants in seven perceptual tasks identified ubiquitous long-term general learning and within-session relearning in most tasks. More importantly, we also found between-session forgetting in the vernier-offset discrimination, face-view discrimination, and auditory-frequency discrimination tasks; between-session off-line gain in the visual shape search task; and within-session adaptation and both between-session forgetting and off-line gain in the contrast detection task. The main results of the vernier-offset discrimination and visual shape search tasks were replicated in a new experiment. The multicomponent model provides a theoretical framework to identify component processes in perceptual learning and a potential tool to optimize learning in normal and clinical populations.
