Question
Based on the Rescorla-Wagner model, if the US intensity is increased in the second phase of conditioning, when L is added to a previously conditioned T in a blocking experiment, then the
A. |
surprising change in the US increases the available associative strength, and thus both L and T will gain additional associative strength and prevent blocking
|
|
B. |
salience of the T will be so much greater than that of the newly added L that the T will continue to accrue all of associative strength, preventing blocking.
|
|
C. |
salience of the new L will be so much greater (due to the surprising change of the US) that CSL will rob the T of its acquired associative strength on every subsequent conditioning trial until L has gained all available associative strength
|
|
D. |
surprising change in the US will double salience of L, causing it to accrue all of the additional associative strength
