In a typical VSL task, participants are exposed to sequences of shapes, symbols, or objects that follow certain probabilistic rules\u2014such as specific transitions being more likely than others. Without explicit instruction or awareness, individuals learn the underlying structure and are later able to predict, categorize, or respond to these patterns more accurately than would be expected by chance. VSL is considered a domain-general learning mechanism that plays a crucial role in cognitive functions such as language acquisition, reading, and object recognition.", "id": "tsk_NOaQmzjqHM4iO", "type": "task", "conditions": [], "concepts": [], "indicators": [], "external_datasets": [], "implementations": [], "citation": [], "contrasts": [], "batteries": [], "disorders": []}
