Unconscious. Freudian

The third possible information route is from psi receptor to unconscious mind to brain to behavior. The unconscious mind is an important and dynamic area of the mind that significantly influences our behavior and feelings but that is ordinarily inaccessible to direct awareness. I will use the concept of the unconscious mind both in this general sense and in the specific Freudian and Jungian senses. 

Subconscious-the classical Freudian unconscious plus many other psychological processes that go on outside our ordinary d-SoC, but that may become directly conscious in various d-ASCs (6) Emotions ... 

The Copernican revolution took the human being s planet out of the center of the universe and out of the center of its own solar system and put it on the periphery. The Darwinian revolution placed the human being in direct descent from lower animals. The Freudian revolution pointed out that much of human motivation is unconscious, rather than conscious. Fluman beings were still holding on to that little bit of conscious motivation that they had until Albert Hofmann came along with LSD, suggesting to us that what little conscious motivation we have is chemical in nature and that it can be influenced very radically by chemicals. 

As far as efficacy is concerned, this is a model of procedural memory with more than a sensorimotor aspect, because it includes considerations of instinctive priority and emotional salience. It is thus the Freudian unconscious broadened and made user-friendly. No longer a cauldron of dread desire, my unconscious procedural repertoire is both rich in sources and ready to respond. I don t have to think about most of what I do. It just happens automatically, appropriately, and adaptively. My emotional brain knows that helicopters, Vermont tractors, and nervous exhibit designers have something in common. 

Indeed, the very existence of what we call "personality" as such a strong, pervasive property of a human being argues for the prevalence, importance, and predominance of habit routines and the HRS as the primary cognitive process. Personality, world view, beliefs, desires, opinions, are all understandable as complex assemblies of habit routines, what the Freudians have for so long called the unconscious, may simply be the totality of potential habit routines that can be accessed (27) A memory is not a memory until it is accessed, therefore an unconscious memory is an oxymoron. 

Although cognitive biases are usually not conscious, in the sense of immediately present to our conscious awareness, they are not unconscious in the Freudian sense there is nothing blocking our awareness of them. Normally we attend to what we perceive and think. We pay less attention to how we perceive and think. When we do so, we can become directly aware of cognitive biases.
