TLDR
The role of attention in Pavlovian conditioning, and use of auditory and visual stimuli to condition rats is discussed in this article, where the authors discuss the use of both visual and auditory stimuli.Abstract:

Overshadowing as a function of trial number: Dynamics of first- and second-order comparator effects
TL;DR: The generality of the effect was extended to a sensory preconditioning design and it was demonstrated that overshadowing lost through many compound-US pairings was restored by posttraining extinction of the training context.

Developing heuristic‐based quality judgments: Blocking in consumer choice
Robert J. Oxoby,Hugh Finnigan +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate how the sequential order in which consumers receive information can influence the way information is processed and affect consumers' decisions, and how consumers' judgments of quality may be heavily dependent on first impressions that develop into brand and price heuristics.

Recovery from the overexpectation effect: Contrasting performance-focused and acquisition- focused models of retrospective revaluation
TL;DR: Pavlovian conditioned lick-suppression effect was reversed through posttraining extinction of CS A, a result consistent with both performance- and acquisition-focused models of retrospective revaluation, however, only performance- focused models could account for how posttraining increases or decreases in the A-footshock temporal interval attenuate the overexpectation effect.

Prediction suppression in monkey inferotemporal cortex depends on the conditional probability between images
TL;DR: It is found that reducing either P(A|B) or P(B|A) during training attenuated prediction suppression as measured during subsequent testing, which concludes that prediction suppression depends on contingency, as embodied in the predictive relations between the images, and not just on contiguity, as embodiment in their co-occurrence.

Stereotype-Based Blocking in Social Explanation
TL;DR: This paper found that stereotypes may affect not only judgments of the causal role of members of a stereotyped group, but also assessments of causal influence of people and events that are unrelated to the stereotype.
