Hearing hooves, thinking zebras: A review of the inverse base-rate effect

HJ Don, DA Worthy, EJ Livesey - Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2021 - Springer
People often fail to use base-rate information appropriately in decision-making. This is
evident in the inverse base-rate effect, a phenomenon in which people tend to predict a rare …

relationship between events and adapt their behavior according to resulting expectations …

Enhancement and reduction of associative retroactive cue interference by training in multiple contexts

G Miguez, MA Laborda, RR Miller - Learning & behavior, 2014 - Springer
Retroactive cue interference refers to situations in which a target cue X is paired with an
outcome in phase 1 and a nontarget cue Z is paired with the same outcome in phase 2, with …

Interference between outcomes, spontaneous recovery, and context effects as measured by a cued response reaction time task: Evidence for associative retrieval …

E González-Martín, PL Cobos, J Morís… - Journal of Experimental …, 2012 - psycnet.apa.org
The most common associative explanation of interference is based on a retrieval failure.
Retrieval, in turn, is considered as the result of an associative activation mechanism that is …

Retrieval-induced forgetting and interference between cues: Training a cue–outcome association attenuates retrieval by alternative cues

N Ortega-Castro, MA Vadillo - Behavioural Processes, 2013 - Elsevier
Some researchers have attempted to determine whether situations in which a single cue is
paired with several outcomes (A–B, A–C interference or interference between outcomes) …

Interference between cues of the same outcome in a non-causally framed scenario

D Luque, J Morís, PL Cobos, FJ López - Behavioural Processes, 2009 - Elsevier
Retroactive interference between cues of the same outcome (ie, IbC) occurs when the
behavioral expression of an association between a cue and an outcome (eg, A→ O1) is …

The role of outcome inhibition in interference between outcomes: A contingency‐learning analogue of retrieval‐induced forgetting

MA Vadillo, C Orgaz, D Luque… - British Journal of …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Current associative theories of contingency learning assume that inhibitory learning plays a
part in the interference between outcomes. However, it is unclear whether this inhibitory …
