The process-dissociation procedure (PDP) is a methodological paradigm widely used in different domains of psychological research. The main innovation of this procedure stems from the possibility it offers to dissociate and to quantify the degree of automaticity and control underlying human performance in different tasks. The PDP embodies a particular definition of automaticity and control, which is an important contribution to solve methodological problems related with direct and indirect tests and with dissociation of processes based on tasks. In the present paper the paradigm will be described using several examples from different areas of psychological research (e.g., memory, stereotypes, judgment and decision making). The basic assumptions underlying the PDP, guidelines to its application, the PDP main limitations and some alternative procedures will also be described.

Palabras clave : Process-dissociation procedure (PDP); automaticity; control.
