Given that collective contracting does not require costly individual-level information on outcomes, it may also facilitate conditioning on additionality (i.e., conditioning payments upon clearly improved outcomes relative to baseline).
The protocol used in our experiments, by systematically unpairing a discrete auditory cue (a tone) with the shock, facilitates the conditioning to the context [40].
Stress facilitates eyeblink conditioning in male rats, but impairs it in female rats especially in the diestrus phase (Bangasser and Shors 2008; Hodes and Shors 2007; Leuner and Shors 2006; Wood et al. 2001; Wood and Shors 1998).
Before beginning conditioning experiments, we first attempted to determine conditions which would allow for NH4Cl/food-deprivation learning equal in extent to benzaldehyde/food-deprivation learning, since previous research has shown that equivalent conditioning strengths are a facilitating condition for blocking15.
Similarly, we demonstrated facilitated fear conditioning in Y1 receptor KO mice, suggesting that NPY inhibits fear conditioning by acting on postsynaptic Y1 receptors.
Between visits 12 and 13, 24 and 25, and 36 and 37 a 4-week-break was included to facilitate immunological conditioning.
At P56, all rats underwent food restriction to 85% of body weight in order to facilitate food conditioning for food reward-based spatial working memory assessment [ 26, 34].
Ho, L. et al. esBAF facilitates pluripotency by conditioning the genome for LIF/STAT3 signalling and by regulating polycomb function.
It may be that extensive training establishes CS-US associations through pathways independent of the amygdala, and that trace conditioning facilitates learning through these circuits.
Lymphopenia induced by conditioning facilitates GVT, and transition to adaptive immunity is enhanced by simultaneous infusion of and DCNeuro2a and lymphocytes devoid of graft vs host (GVH) activity (H2Ka/b).
