Fear generalization in humans: impact of verbal instructions
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated whether verbal instructions about specific stimulus features can influence conditioned fear generalization and found that the same learning experience can have opposite effects in terms of fear generalisation, depending on verbally transmitted information about the relative importance of individual stimulus features.

The overshadowing of background stimuli by an informative CS in aversive Pavlovian conditioning with rats
TL;DR: It was found that rats’ reactions to the shock compartment after training was governed by both temporal and contiguity factors, which are relevant to theories which state that conditioning is a function of a competitive relationship between stimuli present in an animal’s environment during training.

The US preexposure phenomenon in the conditioned suppression paradigm: A role for conditioned situational stimuli☆
TL;DR: It was suggested that associative and nonassociative mechanisms govern the US preexposure phenomenon obtained in the conditioned suppression paradigm, and their relative contribution depends upon the intensity of shock.
