Activation of a Temporal Memory in Purkinje Cells by the mGluR7 Receptor

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Cerebellar Purkinje cells can learn to respond to a conditioned stimulus with an adaptively timed pause in firing. This response was usually ascribed to long-term depression of parallel fiber to Purkinje cell synapses but has recently been shown to be ...

Learning in Cnidaria: a summary

open access: yesCommunicative & Integrative Biology, 2023
Based on a systematic literature search, I recently reviewed learning in the phylum Cnidaria, animals possessing a nerve net as a nervous system but no centralized brain.

Event Timing in Associative Learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Associative learning relies on event timing. Fruit flies for example, once trained with an odour that precedes electric shock, subsequently avoid this odour (punishment learning); if, on the other hand the odour follows the shock during training, it is ...

Minimal model of associative learning for cross-situational lexicon acquisition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
An explanation for the acquisition of word-object mappings is the associative learning in a cross-situational scenario. Here we present analytical results of the performance of a simple associative learning algorithm for acquiring a one-to-one mapping ...

A Longer Interstimulus Interval Yields Better Learning in Adults and Young Adolescents

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
Eyeblink conditioning is one of the most popular experimental paradigms for studying the neural mechanisms underlying learning and memory. A key parameter in eyeblink conditioning is the interstimulus interval (ISI), the time between the onset of the ...

Retrospective revaluation as simple associative learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Backward blocking, unovershadowing and backward conditioned inhibition are examples of "retrospective revaluation" phenomena, that have been suggested to involve more than simple associative learning.

Accounting for Individual Differences in Human Associative Learning.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
Associative learning has provided fundamental insights to understanding psychopathology. However, psychopathology occurs along a continuum and as such, identification of disruptions in processes of associative learning associated with aspects of ...

Age-related decline in associative learning in healthy Chinese adults.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Paired associates learning (PAL) has been widely used in aging-related research, suggesting an age-related decline in associative learning. However, there are several cognitive processes (attention, spatial and recognition memory, strategy, and ...

Excessive teleological thinking is driven by aberrant associations and not by failure of reasoning

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Teleological thought — the tendency to ascribe purpose to objects and events — is useful in some cases (encouraging explanation-seeking), but harmful in others (fueling delusions and conspiracy theories).

Altered development of hippocampus-dependent associative learning following early-life adversity

open access: yesDevelopmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 2019
Little is known about how childhood adversity influences the development of learning and memory and underlying neural circuits. We examined whether violence exposure in childhood influenced hippocampus-dependent associative learning and whether ...
