Learning and Motivation 

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that rats can rapidly learn to locate an object that they can never see, hear, or smell provided it remains in a fixed spatial location relative to distal room cues.

TL;DR: The data suggest that extinction of conditioned fear is specific to the context in which it occurs, and suggest the possibility that animals might discriminate episodes in which a CS is reinforced and nonreinforced independently of the excitatory or inhibitory status of cues, like contextual stimuli, that are coincidentally present during those episodes.

TL;DR: This article used a modified Rescorla-Wagner model that correctly predicts immediate changes in the associative strengths of all relevant cues on each trial, regardless of whether presented or not.

TL;DR: It is suggested that when extramaze stimuli are available, rats tend to use such stimuli in a configurational manner to locate the arms rather than as a list of items processed independently of their spatial relationships to each other.

TL;DR: In this article, rats were tested on an elevated radial maze for their ability to choose each of 17 different arms without repeating any choices, and the results indicated that the animals performed well, choosing an average of more than 14 different arms in the first 17 choices.
