“…Congruently assessing (variations in) stimulus perception, fear and safety learning, and generalized fear responses enables to account for inter-and intra-individual differences regarding the latter (Struyf et al, 2017;Zaman et al, 2022;Zaman, Struyf, et al, 2019. It also yields generalization indexes that are comparable across individuals as they control for differences regarding learning, perception, and memory (Yu et al, 2023;Zaman et al, 2023). In a recent paper, Yu et al (2023) investigated latent mechanisms in fear generalization behavior via a computational generalization model that parameterizes several key processes that contribute to generalized responding, including the speed of learning (Rescorla & Wagner, 1972) and the strength of a similarity-based generalization process (Shepard, 1987) while accounting for differences in stimulus perception.…”
