Abstract
The functional relationship between human avoidance behavior and spatial proximity of a fear stimulus was studied by allowing 4 adults to control the approach of a fear stimulus. The probability of avoidance behavior, defined as stopping the approach of the fear stimulus, increased as the distance between Ss and the fear stimulus decreased. These results suggest that a gradient model may be an adequate conceptual framework for some human avoidance behavior.
