Contemporary theories of causal induction have focussed largely on the question of how evidence in the form of covariations between causes and effects is used to compute measures of causal strength.

Cue interaction and judgments of causality: Contributions of causal and associative processes [PDF]
In four experiments, the predictions made by causal model theory and the Rescorla-Wagner model were tested by using a cue interaction paradigm that measures the relative response to a given event based on the influence or salience of an alternative event.

Associative classifiers have received considerable attention due to their easy to understand models and promising performance. However, with a high dimensional dataset, associative classifiers inevitably face two challenges: (1) how to extract a minimal set of strong predictive rules from an explosive number of generated association rules, and (2) how ...

Associative foundation of causal learning in rats [PDF]
Are humans unique in their ability to interpret exogenous events as causes? We addressed this question by observing the behavior of rats for indications of causal learning. Within an operant motor-sensory preconditioning paradigm, associative surgical techniques revealed that rats attempted to control an outcome (i.e., a potential effect) by ...
