Interactions between causal and statistical learning
TL;DR: For instance, this article found that infants recognize causal properties of objects, including containment, support, and contact, before their second birthday, and by age 5, children understand that biological and psychological events rely on nonobvious, hidden causal relations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of the amount of blocking cue training on blocking of appetitive conditioning in mice.
TL;DR: This work has shown that post-asymptotic training is necessary under certain conditions for blocking in mice, and that blocking occurred independent of trial number with an auditory blocking cue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associability of a previously conditioned stimulus as a function of qualitative changes in the US.
TL;DR: The present experiments examined the possibility that the negative transfer from CS–weak shock conditioning in Stage 1 to CS–strong shock conditioningIn Stage 2 observed by Hall and Pearce was due at least in part to the similarity between weak and strong shock rather than, or in addition to, a general loss of CS associability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of prior exposure on conditioned taste aversion in the rat: androgen- and estrogen-dependent events.
TL;DR: The findings indicate that the outcome of behavior is dependent on the ratio of estradiol to dihydrotestosterone, with variations in this ratio resulting in fast (estrogens effect) to slow (androgen effect) rates of extinction.

Relief learning requires a coincident activation of dopamine D1 and NMDA receptors within the nucleus accumbens.
TL;DR: A co‐activation of dopamine D1 and NMDA receptors in the NAC is required for acquisition of relief learning, indicating that a coincident D1/NMDA activation is crucial for relief learning.
