question 72

Essay

Many stimuli in our lives are ambiguous, having more than one memory associated with them. Each memory's retrieval depends on other cues to set the occasion for the current meaning. Based on what you know about occasion setting, how might anxiety elicited by a cue mysteriously appear? For example, how might a person who had some bad interactions with dogs be confused by the fact that sometimes dogs make him very nervous, and sometimes they do not?
