Classical Conditioning Components of the Orienting Reflex to Words Using Innocuous and Noxious Unconditioned Stimuli Under Different Conditioned Stimulus-Unconditioned Stimulus Intervals
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Maltzman, Irving; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 1977
Concerns the examination of conditioned stimulus--unconditioned stimulus (CS--UCS) intervals of different lengths. Demonstrates the feasibility of using a forewarned reaction time procedure with an innocuous imperative stimulus for the investigation of classical conditioning. (Editor/RK)

Stimulus Similarity as a Determinant of Pavlovian Conditioning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Rescorla, Robert A.; Furrow, David R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
Three experiments carried out second-order Pavlovian conditioning using either similar or dissimilar first-and second-order stimuli. All three experiments were designed to identify the effects of similarity upon conditioning as distinct from its effects upon sensitization or stimulus generalization. (Editor/RK)

The Premise of Equipotentiality in Human Classical Conditioning: Conditioned Electrodermal Responses to Potentially Phobic Stimuli
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Ohman, Arne; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 1976
The premise of equipotentiality, which has been widely adhered to among learning theorists, states that the laws of learning should not vary with the use of particular stimuli, responses, or reinforcements. Investigates this premise. (Editor/RK)
