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:

Asymmetries in cue competition in forward and backward blocking designs : Further evidence for causal model theory
TL;DR: It is shown that causal models determine the extent of cue competition not only in forward but also in backward blocking designs, which is unexplainable from an associative perspective.

Psychological and Neuroscientific Connections with Reinforcement Learning
TL;DR: Behavioral and theoretical research in animal learning that is directly related to fundamental concepts used in Reinforcement Learning and neuroscientific research that suggests that animals and many RL algorithms use very similar learning mechanisms are described.

The effect of intertrial conditioned stimuli in autoshaping
TL;DR: Three autoshaping experiments, using pigeon subjects, suggest that signalling unconditioned stimuli (USs) may have consequences other than that of modulating context-US learning.

A flexible and generalizable model of online latent-state learning.
Amy L. Cochran,Josh M. Cisler +1 more
TL;DR: The goal was to develop a model of latent-state inferences that uses latent states to predict rewards from cues efficiently and that can describe behavior in a diverse set of experiments and derive the model as an online algorithm to maximum likelihood estimation, demonstrating it is an efficient approach to outcome prediction.

Individual differences in anxiety and fear learning: The role of working memory capacity.
TL;DR: It was found that anxious individuals were more likely to show impaired fear discrimination only if they also had a low working memory capacity, and anxiety was particularly associated with poorer learning about safety cues.
