From safety to frustration: The neural substrates of inhibitory learning in aversive and appetitive conditioning procedures. Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 202, Article 107757. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nlm.2023.107757

Inhibitory associative learning counters the effects of excitatory learning, whether appetitively or aversively motivated. Moreover, the affective responses accompanying the inhibitory associations are of opponent valence to the excitatory conditione...
