Abstract:Movement rates and skin resistance levels were recorded during a series of fIxed-duration treatment shocks (ST), some coupled with a feedback stimulus (FB), and others presented in the context of procedures that offset the effects of FB on ST. These measures also were recorded in an escape-training test situation, along with escape latencies. Major fmdings were (1) parallel decreases in both movement and skin resistance levels in response to ST, that (2) developed over blocks of treatment shocks, and that (3) … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
