Define 'Overshadowing.'
Conditioning reduced by training.

Association between CS and US is impaired if a second CS has already been associated with the US.
4 of 9

Easily established conditioning when CS is presented following the US; overlapping.

Ease of conditioning depends on length of trace; CS & US presented at different intervals.

What is simultaneous conditioning?
Very little conditioning; CS & US presented at the same time.
