Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Rescorla-Wagner model primarily focuses on the strength of the association between the conditioned stimulus (CS) and the unconditioned stimulus (UCS), and it does not directly address the concept of dual meanings or interpretations of a CS. Other theories, such as SOP (Standard Operating Procedure), configural theories, and Pearce-Hall, offer mechanisms for understanding how a CS can have multiple meanings based on context, prior learning, or changes in attention.
