Fear Generalization as Threat Prediction: Adaptive Changes in Facial Exploration Strategies revealed by Fixation-Pattern Similarity Analysis

2017-04-15

Abstract excerpt

Animals can effortlessly adapt their behavior by generalizing from past experiences, and avoid harm in novel aversive situations. In our current understanding, the perceptual similarity between learning and generalization samples is viewed as one major factor driving aversive generalization. Alternatively, the threat-prediction account proposes that perceptual similarity should lead to generalization to the extent...
