Abstract
Responding was maintained in squirrel monkeys under variable-interval schedules of electric shock presentation when a period of timeout followed each response-dependent shock. Response rate decreased when timeout duration was decreased, and responding ceased when timeout was eliminated. These results indicate that under certain conditions, a shock-free period following each response-produced shock is necessary to maintain responding.Year: 1975 PMID: 16811856 PMCID: PMC1333370 DOI: 10.1901/jeab.1975.23-457
