“…The alley temperature throughout the study was maintained at 15°C. This temperature, which defines our drive stimulus intensity, is described by human Ss after a 5-sec exposure of the hand as cold, uncomfortable, and somewhat painful (Woods, Griffith, Page, & Rodier, 1967). On a reinforced trial, Ss escaped to a tank maintained at 40°C, a temperature rated by humans, in the same manner as above, as warm, nonpainful, and comfortable.…”
