Contingency learning in alcohol dependence and pathological gambling: learning and unlearning reward contingencies. [PDF]
Patients with alcohol dependence (AD) and pathological gambling (PG) are characterized by dysfunctional reward processing and their ability to adapt to alterations of reward contingencies is impaired. However, most neurocognitive tasks investigating reward processing involve a complex mix of elements, such as working memory, immediate and delayed ...

Working memory load dissociates contingency learning and item-specific proportion-congruent effects.
A consistent finding in the Stroop literature is that congruency effects (i.e., the color-naming latency difference between words presented in incongruent vs.

Outcome contingency selectively affects the neural coding of outcomes but not of tasks [PDF]
Value-based decision-making is ubiquitous in every-day life, and critically depends on the contingency between choices and their outcomes. Only if outcomes are contingent on our choices can we make meaningful value-based decisions.

Individual subjects were allowed to learn at their own rates by adding more items on each trial, contingent on current recall, while reminding them of any items not recalled to assure learning of all items presented. The constantly increasing recall in such ongoing learning was sustained by remembering more items as part of larger recall units.

Contingencies from Observations: Tractable Contingency Planning with Learned Behavior Models [PDF]
Humans have a remarkable ability to make decisions by accurately reasoning about future events, including the future behaviors and states of mind of other agents. Consider driving a car through a busy intersection: it is necessary to reason about the physics of the vehicle, the intentions of other drivers, and their beliefs about your own intentions ...

In the Stroop task, congruency effects (i.e., the color-naming latency difference between incongruent stimuli, e.g., the word BLUE written in the color red, and congruent stimuli, e.g., RED in red) are smaller in a list in which incongruent trials are ...

Contingency Learning With Evaluative Stimuli [PDF]
In two experiments, we tested the generality of the learning effects in the recently-introduced color-word contingency learning paradigm. Participants made speeded evaluative judgments to valenced target words. Each of a set of distracting nonwords was presented most often with either positive or negative target words.

Learning limb‐specific contingencies in early infancy
AbstractMost research with the mobile paradigm has the underlying assumption that young infants can selectively move the limb causing the contingent feedback from the mobile while avoiding irrelevant motor responses. Contrary to this long‐held belief, others have argued that such differentiation ability is not fully developed early in life.

Place learning overrides innate behaviors in Drosophila [PDF]
Animals in a natural environment confront many sensory cues. Some of these cues bias behavioral decisions independent of experience, and action selection can reveal a stimulus–response (S–R) connection.

Contingencies, Logic, and Learning [PDF]
A logical analysis of operant learning is presented. In total, the analysis makes a number of predictions that are different from the predictions of any other theory. Individual predictions can be explained by other theories, but the pattern of predictions is unique. Some tests of the predictions of the analysis with human newborns are described.
