A test of conditioned blocking and its development in childhood and adolescence : Relationship to personality and monoamine metabolism

TL;DR: Conditioned blocking (CB) is the undermining of conditioning to a stimulus by conjoint exposure with one already associated with the unconditioned stimulus as discussed by the authors, which is one of several tests of "learned inattention" in which performance has been found to depend on personality features of human participants.

From brain synapses to systems for learning and memory: Object recognition, spatial navigation, timed conditioning, and movement control.

TL;DR: Adaptive Resonance Theory, or ART, models that use excitatory matching and match-based learning to achieve fast category learning and whose learned memories are dynamically stabilized by top-down expectations, attentional focusing, and memory search are reviewed.

Evidence for dopamine D(1) receptor involvement in the stimulus selection task: overshadowing in the rat.

TL;DR: Data indicate a modulatory role for the DA D1 receptor in the expression of stimulus selection and suggest that the DAD1 receptor might play a role in salience allocation aspects of learning.

Smelling what was there : acquired olfactory percepts are resistant to further modification

TL;DR: The greater resistance to interference of odor-odor learning compared to color–odor learning may result from configural encoding of odor–odor mixtures, which is inconsistent with the possibility that the interference treatment had tended to increase the similarity of the two odors by a process of sensory adaptation.

Associative factors in drug pretreatment effects on gustatory conditioning: cross-drug effects.

TL;DR: An associative manipulation involving nonreinforced presentation of the drug administration cues, that attenuated the PE when pretreatment and conditioning were with amphetamine, was also effective when the pretreatment agent was amphetamine and the conditioning agent was morphine.
