This is thought to be the fundamental process underlying learning.
Optogenetic techniques offer insight into the dopamine circuit underlying learning.
Their nervous systems allow the experimental study of behavioral, neurophysiological, morphological, biochemical, and genetic components of the functional (plastic) changes underlying learning.
Moreover, they suggest that the synaptic strengthening underlying learning is a heterosynaptic phenomenon that requires inputs from other neural structures.
On the other hand, we showed the molecular mechanisms underlying learning an operant conditioning task in the mPFC and the control that exerts BDNF over other genes related to plasticity.
The main underlying learning algorithm in this study is random forest [ 30], which is an ensemble learning method that generates a set of decision trees.
This study evinces the feasibility of simultaneous behavioral and neuronal recordings in awake behaving mice and strengthens the main tenet of cerebellar learning regarding suppressive modulation as a central process underlying learning (De Zeeuw et al., 2011, De Zeeuw and Ten Brinke, 2015).
For example, psychologists assume that the mechanisms underlying learning are shared (homologous) across all species capable of learned behavior.
Superficial appearances may be deceptive: just because the circumstances that produce learning in two cases, along with the consequences of that learning, appear quite different, it does not follow that the processes underlying learning are different.
Associations between specific cognitive deficits underlying learning problems and minor neurological dysfunction (MND) are still unknown.
