Abstract
Extinguished responses are prone to renew outside the context where extinction occurred. Two experiments compared extinction and renewal following either a 1 day conditioning-to-extinction interval or a 27 day interval. Rats received tone-shock pairings in Context A, and extinction in Context B. Testing occurred in Context A (Experiment 1) or C (Experiment 2). Extinction occurred at a similar rate after both retention intervals. Robust renewal was also observed and was not affected by the conditioning-to-extinction retention interval. Results are discussed with respect to prior research on the timing of extinction, the neurobiology of recent and remote memory retrieval, and translational relevance.
期刊介绍:
The neurobiology of learning and memory is entering a new interdisciplinary era. Advances in neuropsychology have identified regions of brain tissue that are critical for certain types of function. Electrophysiological techniques have revealed behavioral correlates of neuronal activity. Studies of synaptic plasticity suggest that some mechanisms of memory formation may resemble those of neural development. And molecular approaches have identified genes with patterns of expression that influence behavior. It is clear that future progress depends on interdisciplinary investigations. The current literature of learning and memory is large but fragmented. Until now, there has been no single journal devoted to this area of study and no dominant journal that demands attention by serious workers in the area, regardless of specialty. Learning & Memory provides a forum for these investigations in the form of research papers and review articles.
