“…Finally, participants are asked to judge which foods are causing Mr. X to suffer an allergic reaction, and this judgment may also take the form of a probability or cued recall judgment. The food allergist task has been used to study cue competition effects such as blocking and overshadowing (e.g., Shanks and Lopez, 1996 ; Aitken et al, 2000 ; Lovibond et al, 2003 ; Beckers et al, 2005a ; Mitchell et al, 2005 , 2006 ; Vandorpe et al, 2007 ; Livesey et al, 2013 , 2019b ; Luque et al, 2013 ; Uengoer et al, 2013 ), learning of preventative relationships such as in the case of conditioned inhibition ( Karazinov and Boakes, 2004 , 2007 ), complex rule learning tasks such as the patterning task ( Shanks and Darby, 1998 ; Wills et al, 2011 ; Don et al, 2020 ), as well as a host of phenomena related to learned attentional changes including the learned predictiveness effect ( Le Pelley and McLaren, 2003 ; Don and Livesey, 2015 ; Shone et al, 2015 ), the inverse base-rate effect ( Don et al, 2019 ), outcome predictability effects ( Griffiths et al, 2015 ; Thorwart et al, 2017 ), and other related transfer effects ( Livesey et al, 2019a ). Food allergies are relatively commonplace such that, by the time they enter the laboratory, participants have a lifetime of experience with food and its ability to cause allergic reactions in oneself or others.…”
