An explanation of automaticity within the framework of the Adaptive Control of Thought (ACT*) production system theory (Anderson, 1983, 1987) is presented. There is no automaticity mechanism per se in ACT*. This is as we would expect it to be. It would be the exception rather than the rule that we would find in a scientific theory mechanisms that directly correspond to natural language concepts. The critical question is whether ACT* can give an account of the phenomena associated with the term automaticity. This article is structured as follows: First, I will try to identify the phenomena of automaticity to be explained, then give a brief overview of the ACT* theory, and finally explain how these phenomena of automaticity are to be understood in terms of the theory.
本文介绍了思维自适应控制（ACT*）生产系统理论框架内的自动性（Anderson，1983年，1987年）。ACT本身并没有自动性机制。这正如我们所预期的那样。在科学理论中，直接对应自然语言概念的机制是例外而非通则。关键问题在于ACT能否解释与自动性这一术语相关的现象。本文结构如下：首先，我将尝试确定要解释的自动性现象，然后简要概述ACT*理论，最后解释如何从该理论的角度理解这些自动性现象。
