Automaticity – the ability to do things without occupying the mind with the low-level details required, allowing it to become an automatic response pattern or habit, usually the result of learning, repetition, and practice; done unconsciously or from force of habit; mechanical; the state or quality of being spontaneous, involuntary, or self-regulating; having the capability of starting, operating, moving, etc., independently; occurring independently of volition, as certain muscular actions; the capacity of a cell to initiate an impulse without an external stimulus; a property of specialised excitable tissue that allows self-activation through spontaneous development of an action potential, as in the pacemaker cells of the heart.
