Associative learning is a fundamental aspect of adaptive behaviour common to all animals, enabling them to use their past experience to predict the future. This project will significantly advance our knowledge about the content of that learning and about the appropriate tools to measure it. The project will prove invaluable for future research into the neural basis of simple learning (and its eventual applications in areas of brain development and repair, and neurodegeneration). It will have important implications for the development of computational models in artificial intelligence and cognitive neuroscience, and for applications of learning principles to clinical settings (such as the treatment of phobias and drug addiction).

联想学习是所有动物共有的适应行为的一个基本方面，使它们能够利用过去的经验来预测未来。这个项目将极大地促进我们对学习内容和衡量学习内容的适当工具的了解。该项目将对未来研究简单学习的神经基础(以及它在大脑发育和修复以及神经退化领域的最终应用)证明是非常有价值的。它将对人工智能和认知神经科学中计算模型的发展以及将学习原理应用于临床环境(如治疗恐惧症和毒瘾)具有重要意义。
