Abstract: | Three experiments examined the effects of prior extinction with nontarget CSs on a target CS’s rate of extinction and amount of associative loss. After fear was conditioned to several CSs, rats received extinction training with the target CS either before or after extinction with nontarget CSs. In general, neither rate of extinction nor amount of associative change, as measured by reinstatement and relearning, were significantly affected by order of extinction. The present results do not support Rescorla’s interpretation of extinction. |
