As shown in Exercise 8, compound conditioning can serve as a control for overshadowing as long as the compound CS in the control condition
a. contains at least three CSs.
b. contains CSs that have the same salience.
c. is never paired with the US.
d. is paired with a US of different intensity than that used in the overshadowing condition.
b. contains CSs that have the same salience.
Answer feedback: In order to demonstrate the overshadowing that occurs when CSs with different salience are presented together in a compound CS, it is crucial that that the compound CS used in the control condition consist of CSs that have the same salience. This can occur regardless of the number of CSs in the compound CS. The absence of a US or the use of a US with different intensity would weaken the ability of the procedure to serve as a proper control.
