ABSTRACT
Chapter 8 concludes the book with a short summary of the study and the theoretical points made based on its results. It then continues with thoughts about the presented framework and its relation to different theoretical strands in the history of cognitive science, most notably on the relation between association and goal-directedness. As opposed to views claiming that either of those two is the dominating principle behind human cognition, it suggests that the presented framework offers a more graded view by proposing an indirect control scheme that results in a tighter, more dynamic coupling between explicit and implicit cognitive processes.
