Abstract
Anticipatory skeletal responses can be directly elicited during classical aversive conditioning in the shuttlebox. Under the classical CS-UCS contingency Long-Evans rats shuttle at moderate rates, while Fischer344 rats display high rates of anticipatory responding, even though the instrumental avoidance contingency is absent. The classical contingency is also exceedingly important in determining the differences between these strains, as well as their initial and terminal rates of anticipatory responding, when the avoidance contingency is present.
