“…Lobb & Runcie (1967) objected to Capaldi's aftereffects hypothesis by noting that the 15-sec interval used in prior ITR studies between N trials and ITR might have interfered with the development of anticipatory frustration, rF-sF' With a longer N-ITR interval, sufficient time would be available for consolidation of rF-sFTo test this hypothesis, Lobb & Runcie (1967) used two N-ITR intervals. While a 15-sec N-ITR group revealed an attenuated PRE in extinction relative to a control group receiving ITR after R trials, a 1-h N-ITR group did not, thereby supporting their hypothesis of the consolidation of conditioned frustration.…”
