Understanding Associative Learning Through Higher-Order Conditioning [PDF]
Frontiers 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.

Higher-Order Conditioning in the Spatial Domain [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 Spatial learning and memory, the processes through which a wide range of living organisms encode, compute, and retrieve information from their environment to perform goal-directed navigation, has been systematically investigated since the early twentieth

Higher-Order Conditioning and Dopamine: Charting a Path Forward [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 Higher-order conditioning involves learning causal links between multiple events, which then allows one to make novel inferences. For example, observing a correlation between two events (e.g., a neighbor wearing a particular sports jersey), later helps ...

Cortical Contributions to Higher-Order Conditioning: A Review of Retrosplenial Cortex Function [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 In higher-order conditioning paradigms, such as sensory preconditioning or second-order conditioning, discrete (e.g., phasic) or contextual (e.g., static) stimuli can gain the ability to elicit learned responses despite never being directly paired with ...

Higher-Order Conditioning With Simultaneous and Backward Conditioned Stimulus: Implications for Models of Pavlovian Conditioning [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 In a new environment, humans and animals can detect and learn that cues predict meaningful outcomes, and use this information to adapt their responses. This process is termed Pavlovian conditioning.

Higher-Order Conditioning: What Is Learnt and How it Is Expressed [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 Pairing a neutral conditioned stimulus (CS) with a motivationally significant unconditioned stimulus (US) results in the CS coming to elicit conditioned responses (CRs).

Electrophysiological correlates of associative learning in smokers: a higher-order conditioning experiment [PDF]
BMC Neuroscience, 2012 Background Classical conditioning has been suggested to play an important role in the development, maintenance, and relapse of tobacco smoking. Several studies have shown that initially neutral stimuli that are directly paired with smoking are able to ...

Higher-order conditioning and the retrosplenial cortex. [PDF]
Neurobiol Learn Mem, 2016 The retrosplenial cortex (RSC) is known to contribute to contextual and spatial learning and memory. This is consistent with its well-established connectivity; the RSC is located at the interface of visuo-spatial association areas and the parahippocampal-hippocampal memory system.

Dorsal hippocampus mediates light–tone associations in male mice [PDF]
eLifeDaily choices are often influenced by environmental cues that are not directly associated with reinforcers. This phenomenon, known as higher-order conditioning, can be studied using sensory preconditioning tasks in rodents.
