Abstract:
* Statistical learning (SL) theory is challenged by modality/stimulus-specific effects. * We argue that SL is shaped by both modality-specific constraints and domain-general principles. * SL relies on modality-specific neural networks and partially shared neural networks. * Studies of individual differences provide targeted insights into mechanisms of SL.
