Rosellini, Robert A.; Seligman, Martin E. P. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1975
This study is concerned with the transfer of learned helplessness from one aversive motivator, shock, to another, frustration. (Author)

Glazer, Howard I.; Weiss, Jay M. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1976
If animals receive inescapable electric shocks, their subsequent avoidance-escape learning is poor. This phenomenon, which can be called "the interference effect", was studied in four experiments. (Editor)

Dyal, James A.; Sytsma, Donald – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1976
Stimulus analyzer theory as proposed by Sutherland and Mackintosh (1971) makes the unique prediction that the first-experienced reinforcement schedule will influence resistance to extinction more than subsequent schedules. Results presently reported of runaway acquisition and extinction indicate the opposite: C-P consistently produce substantially…

Gillan, Douglas J.; Domjan, Michael – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
These experiments attempt to optimize the possibility of demonstrating blocking in a taste-aversion paradigm and to elucidate the conditions under which this interference occurs. (Author/RK)

Domjan, Michael; Gillan, Douglas J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
To complement investigations of the direct effects of lithium toxicosis on consummatory behavior, these experiments were designed to determine the aftereffects on drinking of exposure to a conditioned stimulus previously paired with lithium. (Author/RK)

Peden, Blaine F.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
In four different experiments, brief illumination of a localized visual stimulus was followed by grain presentation unless the pigeon approached the light. Results indicate that although response-reinforcer relations do play a role, stimulus-reinforcer contingencies are the dominant factor in establishing and maintaining approaches to the…

Domjan, Michael; Best, Michael R. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
Analyzes the temporal features of the transient unconditioned stimulus preexposure effect observed by Cannon (EJ 123 672) and attempts to determine whether a preconditioned stimulus toxin presentation can both condition a backward taste aversion and interfere with the development of a forward aversion. (Author/RK)

Maier, Steven F.; Williams, Jon L. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1977
These experiments are addressed specifically to the question of whether transituational transfer of immunizing and therapeutic effects will occur when these procedures involve responses and settings which are very different from those used in final testing. (Author/RK)
