The somatic marker hypothesis: a critical evaluation. (2006, background): “identified stimulus features could shape responding and where participants adopt a conservative response criterion (Lovibond and Shanks, 2002; Shanks and Lovibond, 2002).”
Theories of artificial grammar learning. (2007, background): “Recent implicit versus explicit arguments follow this pattern (Lovibond & Shanks, 2002; Shanks, 2005).”
The electrodermal system (2007, background): “…Cambridge Core terms of use, available at https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms. been frequently replicated (see reviews by Dawson & Schell, 1985; Lovibond & Shanks, 2002) and suggest that awareness of the CS–UCS relation, that is, awareness of CS+ significance, is necessary for human…”
A meta-analysis of instructed fear studies: Implications for conscious appraisal of threat (2010, background): “…yet induces CRs (Critchley et al., 2002; Esteves et al., 1994; Morris et al., 1998; Ohman, 2005; Olsson and Phelps, 2004), constitute one (although not uncontroversial (Lovibond and Shanks, 2002)) type of situation wherein non-conscious appraisals can induce measurable emotional reactions.”
Optimizing inhibitory learning during exposure therapy. (2008, background): “For example, contingency awareness (i.e., knowledge that a specific CS predicts a specific US), although of debatable necessity for conditioned responding (e.g., Lovibond and Shanks (2002) versus Ohman and Mineka (2001)) is a strong correlate of conditioned responding (e.g., Purkis & Lipp, 2001).”
The Dominance of Associative Theorizing in Implicit Attitude Research: Propositional and Behavioral Alternatives (2011, background): “…should be conceptualized not as a consequence of the automatic formation of excitatory or inhibitory links between stimuli and mental representations but, rather, as a product of propositional reasoning processes (e.g., De Houwer, 2007, 2009a; lovibond & Shanks, 2002; Mitchell et al., 2009).”
The Influence of Affect on Attitude (2005, background): “The gist of the argument made by Lovibond and Shanks (2002) is that most of the attempts to assess awareness have simply been inadequate, with the result that any evidence that might support the idea of unconscious conditioning is ambiguous.”
The placebo effect: From concepts to genes. (2015, neutral): “Lovibond and Shanks (2002) critique of studies claiming learning without awareness may be particularly relevant for research on the placebo effect.”
Don't fear ‘fear conditioning’: Methodological considerations for the design and analysis of studies on human fear acquisition, extinction, and return of fear (2017, neutral): “We refer the interested reader to a comprehensive discussion of the reliability and validity of contingency awareness measures as well as the relationship between contingency awareness and differential CRs across measures (Boddez et al., 2013; Lovibond and Shanks, 2002; Wiens and Ohman, 2002).”
The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology (2008, neutral): “This is a critical issue because, according to Lovibond and Shanks (2002), a positive relationship between measures of behaviour and consciousness should be observed irrespective of the particular training conditions that are used, although the relationship might be strongest in the trace condition.”
Derived Avoidance Learning: Transformation of Avoidance Response Functions in Accordance with Same and Opposite Relational Frames (2008, neutral): “…Pavlovian models of psychopathology by making the controversial yet tantalizing suggestion that conditioning with humans may, in some as yet undefined way, differ from that seen with nonhumans (for reviews, see Dawson and Schell, 1987; DeHouwer, Vandorpe, & Beckers, 2004; lovibond & Shanks, 2002).”
An evaluation of current perspectives on consciousness and pain in fishes (2004, background): “The suggestion that implicit learning has no relationship to higher order cognition, or is inherently an unconscious process is a concept that is not universally accepted because there is empirical data that show otherwise (Maren 2001; Lovibond and Shanks 2002 ).”
The propositional approach to associative learning as an alternative for association formation models (2009, background): “This perspective leads to the question of whether associative learning effects depend on expectancy awareness (Lovibond & Shanks, 2002)—that is, awareness of the expectancy that certain future events will occur.”
