“…The memory trace of the conditioned response (CR) acquired during classical eyeblink conditioning (Gormezano, Schneiderman, Deaux , & Fuentes, 1962) is thought to reside in the cerebellum (in humans see , Cheng Disterhoft, Power, Ellis, & Desmond, 2008;Gerwig, Kolb, & Timmann, 2007;in animals, Christian & Thompson, 2005;McCormick, Lavond, Clark, Kettner, Rising, & Thompson, 1981; for a review see Thompson, 2005). The hippocampus is not required for learning when the most simple (delay) form of eyeblink conditioning is applied (Schmaltz & Theios, 1972), but becomes increasingly important if the relations between the conditioning stimuli are more complex, like in trace conditioning (Berger & Orr, 1983;Moyer, Deyo, Disterhoft, 1990;Solomon, Vander Schaaf, Thompson, & Weisz, 1986) or when an unusually long inter-stimulus interval is used in delay conditioning (Beylin, Gandhi, Wood, Talk, Matzel, & Shors, 2001).…”
