Freezing during fear conditioning with tone-shock pairings on Day 1 and tone presentations on Day 2. Rats in both groups showed fear acquisition and displayed comparable freezing levels on Day 1. On Day 2, rats in the 1 then 4 CSs group (n = 6) received a single tone presentation and then four additional tone presentations 15 min later to initiate the retrieval-extinction session, while rats in the 10 CSs group (n = 6) received 10 tone presentations to initiate the standard extinction session.
