Differential competition between hippocampus- and amygdala-dependent processes may contribute to sex differences in retrieval of context fear and greater generalization of fear-associated memory.
Context preexposure increased fear conditioning in males and decreased generalization in females.
Females showed stronger context fear conditioning and more generalization of fear to a similar context than males.
