Unconscious processing is all the mental processing your brain does without you realising its doing it. For examle, let's look at the Behaviourists explanation of human behaviour: A co-worker smiles at you in the corridor. You smile back. Behaviourists believe that the human mind work like a computer, in which data is entered, processed (unconsciously) and a result is produced. INPUT ---->PROCESS ---->OUTPUT INPUT= Smiling co-worker PROCESS= Identifying the imput--a smiling co-worker falls into the social schema (a mental structure that represents some aspect of the world. People use schemata to organize current knowledge and provide a framework for future understanding. Examples of schemata include stereotypes, social roles, world views and archetypes.) This schema shows that to be socially correct and accepted, the gesture must be returned. You may be aware of the reasons why you smile back when you think about it, but at that exact moment, this process occurs in your mind in under a second, without you realising it. OUTPUT= Smiling back unconscious processing can also explain the irrational linking of fear to an object or situations, creating phobias. While the fear of stepping inside an elevator may seem irrational, your brain is unconsciously linking this activity with a bad or unconfortable experience.

Freud called this ordinary memory the preconscious.The unconscious mind is a reservoir of feelings, thoughts, urges, and memories that outside of our conscious awareness. Most of the contents of the unconscious are unacceptable or unpleasant, such as feelings of pain, anxiety, or conflict.
