| Abstract: |
In this study, we investigated the effects of variable Response-to-Stimulus interval (RSI) on sequence learning using both empirical and computational methods. In the empirical study, the serial reaction time task (SRT) was conducted which was followed by free generation and recognition tasks. Results showed that learning becomes explicit with increase in RSI despite its varying temporal nature. We constructed a computational model based on modified Elman network architecture to obtain a functional account of the empirical findings. The model illustrates how explicit learning could emerge due to a longer temporal window between stimuli which could potentially give insights into the mechanisms of sequence learning in variable RSI conditions. |
