How common is a common error term? The rules that govern associative learning in sensory preconditioning and second-order conditioning [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2022 In standard (first-order) Pavlovian conditioning protocols, pairings of an initially neutral conditioned stimulus (CS) and a biologically significant unconditioned stimulus (US) result in the formation of a CS-US association.

Dopamine D1 and D2 Receptors Are Important for Learning About Neutral-Valence Relationships in Sensory Preconditioning [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 Dopamine neurotransmission has been ascribed multiple functions with respect to both motivational and associative processes in reward-based learning, though these have proven difficult to tease apart.

Higher-order unimodal olfactory sensory preconditioning in Drosophila [PDF]
eLife, 2022 Learning and memory storage is a complex process that has proven challenging to tackle. It is likely that, in nature, the instructive value of reinforcing experiences is acquired rather than innate.

The Opioid Receptor Antagonist Naloxone Enhances First-Order Fear Conditioning, Second-Order Fear Conditioning and Sensory Preconditioning in Rats [PDF]
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 The opioid receptor antagonist naloxone enhances Pavlovian fear conditioning when rats are exposed to pairings of an initially neutral stimulus, such as a tone, and a painful foot shock unconditioned stimulus (US; so-called first-order fear conditioning;

Transitions in the temporal parameters of sensory preconditioning during infancy [PDF]
Developmental Psychobiology, 2016 AbstractSensory preconditioning (SPC) is a form of latent learning in which preexposure to co‐occurring neutral stimuli (S1‐S2) permits subsequent learning to be transferred from one stimulus (S1) to the other (S2). We examined whether human infants exhibit developmental transitions in the temporal parameters of SPC by manipulating the preexposure ...

Analysis and modeling of neural processes underlying sensory preconditioning [PDF]
Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 2013 Sensory preconditioning (SPC) is a procedure to demonstrate learning to associate between relatively neutral sensory stimuli in the absence of an external reinforcing stimulus, the underlying neural mechanisms of which have remained obscure. We address basic questions about neural processes underlying SPC, including whether neurons that mediate reward ...

Cortical Contributions to Higher-Order Conditioning: A Review of Retrosplenial Cortex Function
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 ...

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2021 The ability to form associations between different stimuli in the environment to guide adaptive behavior is a central element of learning processes, from perceptual learning in humans to Pavlovian conditioning in animals.

Understanding Associative Learning Through Higher-Order Conditioning
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.

eLife, 2020 The orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) is necessary for inferring value in tests of model-based reasoning, including in sensory preconditioning. This involvement could be accounted for by representation of value or by representation of broader associative ...
