摘要 The paper presents an overview of automaticity research,particularly the influential theories concerned.It highlights four automatic learning models:rule-based approach,item/instance-based approach,exemplar-based random walk model,and restructuring model.Model 1 underlines that automatic processing is proceduralization of declarative knowledge with repeated practice being the prerequisite;model 2 stresses that automaticity is the direct memory retrieval and instance amount together with quality affects retrieval speed;model 3 emphasizes that memory retrieval is similarity-based,and responses are determined by the relative similarity of exemplars;the last argues that it is restructuring other than simply practice that increases the possibility of automaticity.Finally,respective implications of the learning models for ELT(English language teaching) in China are discussed.
