Abstract
Classical nictitating membrane conditioning in rabbits at an interstimulus interval (ISI) of 2,500 msec. was examined as a function of 3 training procedures. Group C2500 (N = 15) received 22 71-trial sessions at an ISI of 2,500 msec; Group C400 (N = 15) received 17 sessions at an ISI of 400, followed by 5 at an ISI of 2,500 msec; Group E400 (N = 14) received 5 sessions at 400, 2 each at, successively, 650, 900, 1,200, 1,500, 1,800, and 2,150, and the final 5 at 2,500 msec. In the last 5 sessions, probability was lowest, and latency and latency SD were largest, in Group C2500; and probability was highest, and latency and latency SD smallest, in Group C400.This publication has 3 references indexed in Scilit:
