## Abstract Long‐term potentiation (LTP) and long‐term depression (LTD) are two forms of synaptic plasticity thought to play functional roles in learning and memory processes. It is generally assumed that the direction of synaptic modifications (i.e., up‐ or down‐regulation of synaptic strength) de
## Abstract Recent reports have raised concerns about the ability of long‐term potentiation (LTP) to account for associative learning and memory. In this paper, we review the many mechanistic similarities between one form of associative learning, Pavlovian fear conditioning, and amygdaloid LTP. We
