Zusammenfassung

According to associative models, in a second orderconditioning preparation an association formsbetween CS2 and CSl, so the activation may beconducted to the US via de primary association.Timing models assumes that what is learned is notthe association between two events, but thetemporal interval between two signed events. So,the organism learns to estimate the interval formCS2 to the US, and it is assumes that this interval isthe sum of the interval between CS2 and CSl andthe interval between CSl and the US. The presentwork is about this hypothesis.
