Exploring the Frontiers of Behavioral Analysis: Rescorla and Wagner Methods
2 min readJan 22, 2024






Conclusions As of Now
Statistical Expectations:
- Conventional statistical models might anticipate a variance in responses based on individual differences in tolerance or sensitivity.
- Statistical analysis could explore the correlation between the salience of the revelation, the prediction error, and the subsequent behaviour.
Psychological Insights:
- Psychologically, individuals with higher tolerance may exhibit a more gradual adjustment of their associative strength, reflected in a continued conversation.
- Those with higher sensitivity may show a more abrupt change, leading to an immediate cessation of the conversation.
Holomorphic Nature:
- The Rescorla-Wagner model’s holomorphic-like updating process aligns with the continuous and differentiable nature of cognitive adjustments to unexpected events.
- Isomorphic Relationship:
- The systematic relationship between the stimulus and reaction, as dictated by the Rescorla-Wagner model, supports an isomorphic correspondence between the two.
