Abstract:Studies from one laboratory have shown deprivation-induced attenuation of startle response magnitudes, but another laboratory has reported failures to show any relationship between these variables. In an attempt to locate possible procedural contributions to this discrepancy in outcomes, our Experiment 1 involved 20 massed startle-stimulus presentations (30-sec lSI) to rats that had gone either 43 h or 1 h since eating (80% body weights equated for groups). Experiment 2 entailed spaced presentations (four tria… Show more
