What can associative learning do for planning? [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
There is a new associative learning paradox. The power of associative learning for producing flexible behaviour in non-human animals is downplayed or ignored by researchers in animal cognition, whereas artificial intelligence research shows that ...

Reconceptualized Associative Learning. [PDF]

open access: yesPerspect Behav Sci
Abstract Research on the role of time in associative learning has changed our understanding of what an association is. It is a measurable fact about the distribution of events in time, not an altered activation-conducting connection in a mind, brain or net.

Time and associative learning [PDF]

open access: yesComparative Cognition & Behavior Reviews, 2010
In a basic associative learning paradigm, learning is said to have occurred when the conditioned stimulus evokes an anticipatory response. This learning is widely believed to depend on the contiguous presentation of conditioned and unconditioned stimulus. However, what it means to be contiguous has not been rigorously defined.

Electrocortical correlates of attention differentiate individual capacity in associative learning [PDF]

open access: yesnpj Science of Learning
Associative learning abilities vary considerably among individuals, with attentional processes suggested to play a role in these variations. However, the relationship between attentional processes and individual differences in associative learning ...

Associative learning via eyeblink conditioning differs by age from infancy to adulthood [PDF]

open access: yesCommunications Psychology
Associative learning is a key feature of adaptive behaviour and mental health, enabling individuals to adjust their actions in anticipation of future events.

Effects of working memory load and CS-US intervals on delay eyeblink conditioning

open access: yesnpj Science of Learning, 2023
Eyeblink conditioning is used in many species to study motor learning and make inferences about cerebellar function. However, the discrepancies in performance between humans and other species combined with evidence that volition and awareness can ...

Learning by Association in Plants [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Abstract In complex and ever-changing environments, resources such as food are often scarce and unevenly distributed in space and time. Therefore, utilizing external cues to locate and remember high-quality sources allows more efficient foraging, thus increasing chances for survival.

Associative learning and timing [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Behavioral Sciences, 2016
Associative learning and timing are clearly inter-related, but are they separate processes or is timing a core part of the associative structure? Emerging research suggests that temporal information is acquired rapidly and that CR's are timed correctly from the start of associative learning.

Associative Learning in Invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2015
This work reviews research on neural mechanisms of two types of associative learning in the marine mollusk Aplysia, classical conditioning of the gill- and siphon-withdrawal reflex and operant conditioning of feeding behavior. Basic classical conditioning is caused in part by activity-dependent facilitation at sensory neuron-motor neuron (SN-MN ...

Understanding Associative Learning Through Higher-Order Conditioning

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022
Associative learning is often considered to require the physical presence of stimuli in the environment in order for them to be linked. This, however, is not a necessary condition for learning.
