Abstract

2 groups of 10 rats were trained in a runway with consistent reward and intermittent punishment. One group received the shocks according to a single alternation schedule and the second group was trained with an irregular schedule. The animals in the alternating schedule, but not the irregular schedule, learned a pattern discrimination suggesting that punishment produces a unique stimulus aftereffect.
