Description
Summary:With tones as conditioned stimuli, and shock as UCS, conditioning and conditioned discrimination of the GSR were established in cats. 3 different CS-UCS intervals were compared, each of 6 cats serving in all conditions, with conditioning sessions separated by extinction periods. The effect of CS-UCS interval was significant, and that of Sessions was not, suggesting that the method of using an animal in several conditions is justifiable. From Psyc Abstracts 36:05:5EH72W.
