Latent inhibition is a phenomenon by which exposure to an
irrelevant stimulus impedes the acquisition or expression of
conditioned associations with that stimulus. Latent inhibition, an
integral part of the learning process, is observed in many species.
This comprehensive collection of studies of latent inhibition, from
a variety of disciplines including behavioural/cognitive
psychology, neuroscience and genetics, focuses on abnormal latent
inhibition effects in schizophrenic patients and schizotypal
normals. Amongst other things, the book addresses questions such
as, is latent inhibition an acquisition or performance deficit?
What is the relationship of latent inhibition to habituation,
extinction, and learned irrelevance? Does reduced latent inhibition
predict creativity? What are the neural substrates, pharmacology,
and genetics of latent inhibition? What do latent inhibition
research and theories tell us about schizophrenia? This book
provides a single point of reference for neuroscience researchers,
graduate students, and professionals, such as psychologists and
psychiatrists.
