MAINTENANCE AND SUPPRESSION OF RESPONDING UNDER SCHEDULES OF ELECTRIC SHOCK PRESENTATION1

Abstract: In squirrel monkeys previously trained under a continuous avoidance schedule, characteristic patterns of responding were maintained under a 3-min variable-interval schedule of shock presentation (response-produced shock). Responding in the presence of a periodically presented stimulus, the termination of which coincided with the delivery of a response-independent electric shock (Estes-Skinner procedure), was not reliably affected. When shocks followed every response during certain signalled portions of the ses… Show more

“…With few exceptions, however, reports have described only responding maintained by interval schedules of shock presentation. The result usually obtained when ratio schedules of shock presentation are studied is decreased responding or suppression, rather than maintenance, of responding (Branch & Dworkin, 1981;Kelleher & Morse, 1969;McKearney, 1972).…”

“…After Phases I and II, Monkeys BB and HB were retrained under a continuous shock-avoidance schedule (Sidman, 1953) of S-S 10, R-S 30 for 10 sessions. Subsequently, the animals were exposed to a training sequence resembling McKearney's (1972): concuirrent avoidance, fixed-time (FT) 10-min shock; FT 10-min shock alone; concurrent avoidance, VI 3-min response-produced shock; VI 3-min response-produced shock alone. Intervals comprising the VI schedule were identical to those used by McKearney (1972).…”
