models provided the best account of data generated in tasks that require human observers to judge the relationship between binary events. In the intervening years, new data have been reported that provide evidence for higherorder processes. Some have argued that these new data pose a serious threat to the viability of the associative account. The purpose of the present paper is to review this evidence and to assess the severity of this threat. In 1978, Brooks described the interaction between analytic and nonanalytic processes, and argued that “there are many factors that push a person’s strategy toward one end of the scale or another – that is, toward learning individuals by codings that are designed to retain the item’s individuality, or toward tracking the validity of characteristics of the stimulus

The authors previously described a procedure that permits rapid, multiple within-participant assessments of the contingency between a cue and an outcome (the “streamed-trial ” procedure, Crump, Hannah, Allan, & Hord, 2007). In the present experiments, the authors modified this procedure to investigate cue-interaction effects, replicating conventional findings in both the one- and two-phase blocking paradigms. The authors show that the streamed-trial procedure is not restricted to the geometric forms used as cues and outcomes by Crump et al., and that it can incorporate the conventional allergy stimuli, where food is the cue and an allergic reaction is the outcome. The authors discuss the value of the streamed-trial procedure as a method for advancing our theoretical understanding of cue-interaction effects.

Competence and performance in causal learning The dominant theoretical approach to causal learning postulates the acquisition of associative weights between cues and outcomes. These associative weights reflect the amount of covariation between the learning events. In the past few years, the associationist approach to causal learning has been criticized by a number of researchers
