Abstract

A series of experiments were conducted to demonstrate an extinction cue effect in humans using a conditioned suppression task. All studies showed null effects despite various modifications. These null results stand in contrast to several demonstrations of an extinction cue effect in rodents. Conclusions regarding the feasibility of this effect in humans will be discussed as well as possible difference between human and rat information processing.
