The legacy of Guttman and Kalish (1956): Twenty-five years of research on stimulus generalization.

TL;DR: This paper is a selective review of the methods, problems, and findings in the area of operant stimulus generalization over the 25 years since the publication of the original paper by Guttman and Kalish (1956) on discriminability and spectral generalization in the pigeon.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potentiation, overshadowing, and blocking of spatial learning based on the shape of the environment.

TL;DR: The results mimic findings that have been obtained with Pavlovian conditioning, and they challenge the claim that learning about the shape of the environment takes places in a dedicated geometric module.
Journal ArticleDOI

An analysis of overshadowing and blocking

TL;DR: Pretraining on one component resulted in complete failure to learn about a second component during compound training, but did not prevent additional learning about the first component, which was interpreted as supporting an attentional analysis of blocking and overshadowing.
Book ChapterDOI

Procedures and Parameters of Errorless Discrimination Training with Developmentally Impaired Individuals

TL;DR: This chapter reviews procedural parameters involved in errorless discrimination training, that is, type of stimulus manipulations, error criteria and positive responses per step, nature of the task, number of steps in the program, and manipulations along the S+ and/or S- stimuli.

"Attention-like" processes in classical conditioning

Leon J. Kamin
TL;DR: Conditioned emotional response studies using rats already trained to press bar for food supply were conducted in this paper, where the authors used conditioned emotional response to evaluate the emotional response of rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective attention in animal discrimination learning.

TL;DR: Investigations of the effect of attention on the amount learned about different cues have been interpreted as disproving noncontinuity theory (according to which animals attend to only 1 cue at a time).
