We show that a simple network model of associative learning can reproduce three findings that arise from particular training and testing procedures in generalization experiments: the effect of (i) ‘errorless learning’, (ii) extinction testing on peak shift, and (iii) the central tendency effect. These findings provide a true test of the network model which was developed to account for other phenomena, and highlight the potential of neural networks to study the phenomena that depend on sequences of experiences with many stimuli. Our results suggest that at least some such phenomena, e.g. stimulus range effects, may derive from basic mechanisms of associative memory rather than from more complex memory processes.

Abstract. In a contingency learning task, 4-year-old and 8-year-old children had to predict the outcome displayed on the back of a card on the basis of cues presented on the front. The task was embedded in either a causal or a merely predictive scenario. Within this task, either a forward blocking or a backward blocking procedure was implemented. Blocking occurred in the causal but not in the predictive scenario. Moreover, blocking was affected by the scenario to the same extent in both age groups. The pattern of results was similar for forward and backward blocking. These results suggest that even young children are sensitive to the causal structure of a contingency learning task and that the occurrence of blocking in such a task defies an explanation in terms of associative learning theory.
