Document Summary

Take a stimulus in the environment that was originally neutral with respect to the unconditioned response and pair it with us which itself elicits a response on its own which elicits cr. Higher order learning (second order) absence of the us. Take a 1st order cs to condition a second order association completely in the. Condition second stimulus to the first stimulus, critical element is in the. Experimental evidence: tone is paired with food and then another sound is absence of the unconditioned stimulus unpaired with food (control) so when tone comes on, animals approach source of food. But take 2 cues and use in a second association where one light predicts tone and other light predicts click and light independent of tone or click will elicit pavlovian goal approach. Teaching an organism something it would not actually do. The cs- will predict the absence of the us.
