条件反射的习得失败理论和表达失败理论对线索竞争效应提供了不同的解释。本研究探讨了潜在的基础上的相对刺激有效性的影响，通过一个程序，有时会发现潜在的协会在其他线索竞争的情况下。在实验1中，一个长的保留间隔（21天）之间插入相对有效性训练和随后的测试，什么可以被解释为相对有效性效应的自发恢复被观察到。然而，在实验1中观察到的行为恢复也是可以解释的刺激泛化的差异。实验2评估了实验1的这种替代解释，发现它是不够的。研究结果在线索竞争的习得失败理论和表达失败理论的框架下进行了讨论。
Abstract Acquisition-failure theories and expression-failure theories of conditioning provide divergent explanations of cue competition effects. The present research examined the underlying basis of the effect of relative stimulus validity through a procedure that has sometimes revealed latent associations in other cue competition situations. In Experiment 1, a long retention interval (21 days) was inserted between relative validity training and subsequent testing, and what could be interpreted as a spontaneous recovery from the relative validity effect was observed. However, the behavioral recovery observed in Experiment 1 was also explicable in terms of differences in stimulus generalization. Experiment 2 evaluated this alternative explanation of Experiment 1 and found it wanting. The results are discussed in the framework of acquisition-failure and expression-failure theories of cue competition.
