Abstract

Five different 20 sec visual stimuli were consistently terminated by an unavoidable 100 millisec. shock of 0.0, 0.1, 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 milliamps during sessions in which lever pressing by rhesus monkeys was reinforced on a random ratio 1% schedule. The magnitude of response suppression during trial N was initially dependent upon the shock intensity terminating trial N-1, and, subsequently, dependent only upon the shock intensity terminating trial N. The terminal pattern of stimulus controlled differential suppression was stable and a monotonie function of shock intensity.
