This research was aimed to investigate the processes of human implicit memory for visual shapes. Two psychological experiments were conducted to examine whether the internal representation of human implicit memory for visual shapes should be separated into vision modules for visual attributes such as luminance, color, motion and so forth, or integrated into the common form that represented the shapes of the patterns. Priming paradigm, which had been used in experiments for human verbal implicit memory, was used in the present experiments of the human visual implicit memory. After human participants memorized several visual shapes, their memory traces for other visual shapes were measured by priming tasks. To clarify the effects of the vision modules, introduced was an experimental condition was in which the attributes such as luminance, color, and motion that defined the memorized shapes were not same as the attributes that defined the shapes in the examination of the performance changes. The performance in the experimental condition was compared that in the control condition in which the attributes that defined the memorized shapes were same as the attributes hat defined the shapes in the examination. For random matrices which were not familiar to the participants used as memorized materials, priming effects were diminished if the defining attributes were changed (experiment 1). For hira-gana characters of Japanese alphabets, however, priming effects were observed even if the defining attributes were changed (experiment 2). The difference between the results of those two experiments suggested an influence of the familiarity of on the relationship between the implicit memory and the vision modules.

这项研究旨在调查人类对视觉形状的内隐记忆过程。进行了两项心理学实验，以检验人类对视觉形状的内隐记忆的内部表征是否应该被分成视觉属性（例如亮度、颜色、运动等）的视觉模块，或者集成到表示图案形状的通用形式中。启动范式曾用于人类言语内隐记忆实验，现在也用于人类视觉内隐记忆实验。在人类参与者记住了几种视觉形状后，他们对其他视觉形状的记忆痕迹通过启动任务来测量。为了阐明视觉模块的效果，引入了一个实验条件，其中定义记忆形状的亮度、颜色和运动等属性与在性能变化检查中定义形状的属性不同。将实验条件下的表现与控制条件下的表现进行比较，其中定义记忆形状的属性与定义考试中形状的属性相同。对于用作记忆材料的参与者不熟悉的随机矩阵，如果改变定义属性，启动效应就会减弱（实验 1）。然而，对于日语字母的平假名字符，即使定义属性发生变化，也观察到启动效应（实验 2）。这两个实验结果之间的差异表明熟悉程度对内隐记忆和视觉模块之间的关系有影响。
