Pearce's Configural Approach Assumes That

question 53

Multiple Choice

Pearce's configural approach assumes that

• A) on a trial in which L and T are combined and paired with the US, there is only one CS.
• B) external inhibition occurs because an old CS is in the A2 state when a newly added CS is in the A1 state.
• C) CS-US timing effects are due to interstimulus intervals that are either within or outside the configural moment.
• D) multiple CSs are conditioned separately, and this learning then blocks configural conditioning.
