appetitive conditioning

The investigators will examine acquisition and extinction of learned associations to positively-valenced, socially rewarding yet symptom-neutral infant laughter sounds in an appetitive conditioning paradigm. The investigators will also examine spontaneous recovery of this association 24 hours later when re-presented with these cues, and the reinstatement of this association when re-exposed to infant laughter.
