Effects of local anesthesia of the cerebellum on classical fear conditioning in goldfish

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2010
Background Besides the amygdala, of which emotion roles have been intensively studied, the cerebellum has also been demonstrated to play a critical role in simple classical fear conditioning in both mammals and fishes.

Application of Biological Learning Theories to Mobile Robot Avoidance and Approach Behaviors [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We present a neural network that learns to control approach and avoidance behaviors in a mobile robot using the mechanisms of classical and operant conditioning.

Roles of octopaminergic and dopaminergic neurons in appetitive and aversive memory recall in an insect

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2009
Background In insect classical conditioning, octopamine (the invertebrate counterpart of noradrenaline) or dopamine has been suggested to mediate reinforcing properties of appetitive or aversive unconditioned stimulus, respectively. However, the roles of

Role of the motor cortex in the generation of classically conditioned eyelid and vibrissae responses

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The eyelid motor system has been used for years as an experimental model for studying the neuronal mechanisms underlying motor and cognitive learning, mainly with classical conditioning procedures. Nonetheless, it is not known yet which brain structures,

Temporal Factors Modulate Haloperidol-Induced Conditioned Catalepsy

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021
Repeated pairings of a neutral context and the effects of haloperidol give rise to conditioned catalepsy when the context is subsequently presented in a drug-free test.

Avoidant symptoms in PTSD predict fear circuit activation during multimodal fear extinction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Convergent evidence suggests that individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) exhibit exaggerated avoidance behaviors as well as abnormalities in Pavlonian fear conditioning.

Trace eyeblink conditioning is impaired in α7 but not in β2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor knock-out mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are essentially involved in learning and memory. A neurobiologically and behaviorally well-characterized measure of learning and memory, eyeblink classical conditioning, is sensitive to disruptions in ...

Calibrating Generative Models: The Probabilistic Chomsky-Schützenberger Hierarchy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
A probabilistic Chomsky–Schützenberger hierarchy of grammars is introduced and studied, with the aim of understanding the expressive power of generative models.

Asymptotic behavior of the generalized St. Petersburg sum conditioned on its maximum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, we revisit the classical results on the generalized St. Petersburg sums. We determine the limit distribution of the St. Petersburg sum conditioning on its maximum, and we analyze how the limit depends on the value of the maximum.

Sea slugs, subliminal pictures and vegetative state patients: Boundaries of consciousness in classical conditioning.

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2011
Classical (trace) conditioning is a specific variant of associative learning in which a neutral stimulus leads to the subsequent prediction of an emotionally charged or noxious stimulus after a temporal gap.
