Potentiation and Blocking of Conditioned Flavour and Context Aversions

TL;DR: There was no evidence that the place acquired aversive control over ingestive behaviours simply as a consequence of it having contained the averted flavour, and reinforcement of the aversive flavour outside the place-flavour compound increased flavour aversions but decreased, rather than increased, place aversions.

Trace Conditioning in Drosophila Induces Associative Plasticity in Mushroom Body Kenyon Cells and Dopaminergic Neurons.

TL;DR: Associative plasticity in DANs and their synaptic partners, the Kenyon cells in the mushroom bodies (MBs), while training Drosophila to associate an odorant with a temporally separated electric shock is studied.

Roles of Octopamine and Dopamine Neurons for Mediating Appetitive and Aversive Signals in Pavlovian Conditioning in Crickets.

TL;DR: The basic principles of functioning of aminergic systems in associative learning, i.e., to transmit prediction error signals for conditioning and to convey US prediction signals for execution of CR, are conserved among insects and mammals, on account of the fact that the organization of the insect brain is much simpler than that of the mammalian brain.

Niche-related learning in laboratory paradigms: the case of maze behavior in Norway rats.

TL;DR: There is strong evidence for the hypothesis that behavior of rats in laboratory mazes is based on niche-related mechanisms and a niche- related approach to laboratory learning paradigms has conceptual generality and the potential to facilitate connections with the study of neurophysiology, genetics, and evolution.

Stimulus dimension shifts in patients with schizophrenia, with and without paranoid hallucinatory symptoms, or obsessive compulsive disorder: strategies, blocking and monoamine status.

TL;DR: In this paper, patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) or schizophrenia with (PH) or without (NP) active paranoid hallucinatory symptoms were studied to see if learned inattention to the irrelevant dimension differentially influenced the efficacy of learning and stimulus choice strategy.
