Article Synopsis
- Discrimination and generalization of responses are essential for adapting to changing environments, particularly in understanding Pavlovian conditioning responses.
- In an experiment, mice were trained to associate a 10 kHz tone with a puff of air (CS+) while being exposed to other tones (CS-) without the air puff to investigate how different training methods affect response generalization.
- Results showed that higher differences between CS+ and CS- tones led to increased generalization in probability and amplitude of eyelid responses, but not in timing, emphasizing the importance of discrimination in learning.
