Relative recency influences object-in-context memory (2014)
Journal Article
Tam, S. K., Bonardi, C., & Robinson, J. (2015). Relative recency influences object-in-context memory. Behavioural Brain Research, 281, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2014.12.024

In two experiments rats received training on an object-in-context (OIC) task, in which they received preexposure to object A in context x, followed by exposure to object B in context y. In a subsequent test both A and B are presented in either contex... Read More about Relative recency influences object-in-context memory.

An associative analysis of object memory (2014)
Journal Article
Robinson, J., & Bonardi, C. (in press). An associative analysis of object memory. Behavioural Brain Research, 285, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbr.2014.10.046

Different aspects of recognition memory in rodents are commonly assessed using variants of the spontaneous object recognition procedure in which animals explore objects that differ in terms of their novelty, recency, or where they have previously bee...

Effects of dorsal hippocampal damage on conditioning and conditioned-response timing: a pooled analysis (2014)
Journal Article
Tam, S. K., Jennings, D. J., & Bonardi, C. (2015). Effects of dorsal hippocampal damage on conditioning and conditioned-response timing: a pooled analysis. Hippocampus, 25(4), https://doi.org/10.1002/hipo.22381

Behavioral findings suggest that the dorsal hippocampus (DHPC) plays a role in timing of appetitive conditioned responding. The present article explored the relationship between the extent of DHPC damage and timing ability, in a pooled analysis of th...

Overshadowing by fixed- and variable-duration stimuli (2014)
Journal Article
Bonardi, C., Mondragón, E., Brilot, B., & Jennings, D. J. (2015). Overshadowing by fixed- and variable-duration stimuli. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 68(3), https://doi.org/10.1080/17470218.2014.960875

Two experiments investigated the effect of the temporal distribution form of a stimulus on its ability to produce an overshadowing effect. The overshadowing stimuli were either of the same duration on every trial, or of a variable duration drawn from... Read More about Overshadowing by fixed- and variable-duration stimuli.

SSCC TD: a serial and simultaneous configural-cue compound stimuli representation for temporal difference learning (2014)
Journal Article
Mondragón, E., Gray, J., Alonso, E., Bonardi, C., & Jennings, D. J. (2014). SSCC TD: a serial and simultaneous configural-cue compound stimuli representation for temporal difference learning. PLoS ONE, 9(7), Article e102469. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0102469

This paper presents a novel representational framework for the Temporal Difference (TD) model of learning, which allows the computation of configural stimuli – cumulative compounds of stimuli that generate perceptual emergents known as configural cue...

Dissociations in the effect of delay on object recognition: evidence for an associative model of recognition memory (2014)
Journal Article
Tam, S. K., Robinson, J., Jennings, D. J., & Bonardi, C. (2014). Dissociations in the effect of delay on object recognition: evidence for an associative model of recognition memory. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Learning and Cognition, 40(1), https://doi.org/10.1037/xan0000003

Rats were administered 3 versions of an object recognition task: In the spontaneous object recognition task (SOR) animals discriminated between a familiar object and a novel object; in the temporal order task they discriminated between 2 familiar obj...
