Prepared learning, learning that is selective, resistant to extinction, evident after one trial, and encapsulated from cognition, is said to underlie animal and social phobias (O¨ hman, 2009). Resistance to extinction has been shown for fears conditioned to pictures of snakes and spiders and to pictures of faces of threatening conspecifics (angry faces or faces that look different – other race faces). However, whereas fear conditioned to pictures of snakes and spiders is encapsulated from cognition, fear conditioned to pictures of other race faces is not (Mallan et al., 2009). The present study investigated whether fear conditioned to pictures of angry faces is encapsulated from cognition. Two groups of participants were trained in a differ...
