Dopamine D1 receptor involvement in latent inhibition and overshadowing (2012)
Journal Article
Nelson, A. J., Thur, K. E., & Cassaday, H. J. (2012). Dopamine D1 receptor involvement in latent inhibition and overshadowing. International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 15(10), https://doi.org/10.1017/S1461145711001751

Latent inhibition (LI) manifests as poorer conditioning to a stimulus that has previously been experienced without consequence. There is good evidence of dopaminergic modulation of LI, as the e?ect is reliably disrupted by the indirect dopamine (DA...

When to hold that thought: an experimental study showing reduced inhibition of pre-trained associations in schizophrenia (2012)
Journal Article
He, Z., Cassaday, H. J., Park, S. B. G., & Bonardi, C. (2012). When to hold that thought: an experimental study showing reduced inhibition of pre-trained associations in schizophrenia. PLoS ONE, 7(7), Article e42175. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0042175

Schizophrenia encompasses a wide variety of cognitive dysfunctions, a number of which can be understood as deficits of inhibition. To date, no research has examined ‘conditioned inhibition’ in schizophrenia - the ability of a stimulus that signals th...

Opposing effects of 5,7-DHT lesions to the core and shell of the nucleus accumbens on the processing of irrelevant stimuli (2012)
Journal Article
Nelson, A. J., Thur, K. E., Marsden, C. A., & Cassaday, H. J. (2012). Opposing effects of 5,7-DHT lesions to the core and shell of the nucleus accumbens on the processing of irrelevant stimuli. International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology, 15(4), https://doi.org/10.1017/S1461145711000599

There is good evidence that forebrain serotonergic systems modulate cognitive flexibility. Latent inhibition (LI) is a cross-species phenomenon which manifests as poor conditioning to a stimulus that has previously been experienced without consequenc...

Dopamine in nucleus accumbens: salience modulation in latent inhibition and overshadowing (2012)
Journal Article
Nelson, A. J., Thur, K. E., Marsden, C., & Cassaday, H. J. (2012). Dopamine in nucleus accumbens: salience modulation in latent inhibition and overshadowing. Journal of Psychopharmacology, 25(12), https://doi.org/10.1177/0269881110389211

Latent inhibition (LI) is demonstrated when non-reinforced pre-exposure to a to-be-conditioned stimulus retards later learning. Learning is similarly retarded in overshadowing, in this case using the relative intensity of competing cues to manipulate...
