Stimulus and response anticipation in a serial reaction task

When subjects are confronted with sequences of stimuli that are constructed according to certain rules, they tend to improve their performance in terms of lower error rates and/or faster reaction times as compared to random sequences of the same stimuli, even if they are not able to report the regularities of events.
