An experiment is described that tested the moderating influence of contingency awareness on evaluative conditioning. After participants were conditioned within the picture-picture paradigm, contingency awareness was assessed by means of a recognition test (i.e., the 4-picture recognition test). Results indicate an inverse relationship between the conditioned affective reaction and contingency awareness: Only participants classified as unaware in the recognition test showed significant effects of evaluative learning. A closer inspection indicates that aware individuals stored not only the valence but also the nominal stimulus in mind.
本文描述了一项实验，该实验测试了偶然性意识对评价性条件作用的调节影响。在参与者于图片-图片范式中接受条件作用后，通过识别测试（即四图片识别测试）评估偶然性意识。结果表明，条件性情感反应与偶然性意识之间存在反比关系：只有在识别测试中被归类为无意识的参与者才表现出评价性学习的显著效果。进一步检查表明，有意识的个体不仅在脑海中存储了效价，还存储了名义刺激。
