The present experiment employed the peak-interval (PI) procedure to study the effect of an intruded cue on timing behavior. Rats were trained on a 30-s PI procedure with a tone cue. Subsequently, a 6-s flashing light was paired off-baseline with foot shock (Experiment 1) or presented alone (Experiment 2). Then, in test trials, the light cue was presented 9s prior to (before) or 3s after (during) the onset of the timing cue, or the light was omitted (probe). Results showed rightward shifts in peak time occurring on both before and during trials in both experiments. Peak shifts on during trials exceeded the reset prediction in Experiment 1. When PI functions for before and probe trials were normalized in peak rate and peak time, they superimposed better than when functions were adjusted additively along the time axis, suggesting that the light cue may engender a decrease in functional clock rate. The findings suggested that the intruded cue produced both intracue and postcue interference with timing that was enhanced by fear conditioning.
