“…The results here presented, as well as those found in a preliminary experiment with varying frequencies of tone (15), suggest that the curve of acquisition of the galvanic skin reaction is not of the typical S-shaped variety (Hull,16) reported for conditioned salivary responses (Kleitman and Crisler,19), for conditioned knee-jerks (Wendt,26), and for conditioned eyelid responses in dogs (Hilgard and Marquis,8), monkeys (Hilgard and Marquis,9), and in human subjects (Hilgard,7,Hilgard and Campbell,10). Instead, the curve is of the type characteristically found for the acquisition of simple motor skills, but also obtained for conditioned respiratory responses (Garvey,6) and for conditioned eyelid responses with multiple stimuli (Miller and Cole,23).…”
