Abstract

Deutsch's theory of intracranial self-stimulation generates experimental predictions regarding the effects of both free stimulation of the brain and the pre-extinction training procedure on extinction behavior after rewarding stimulation of the brain. The results of one experiment confirmed the prediction regarding free stimulation; the other experiment did not provide the expected result. We concluded that Deutsch's theory, in its present form, is of restricted enerality.

摘要

多伊奇的颅内自我刺激理论针对大脑的自由刺激以及在对大脑进行奖励性刺激后的消退行为的消退前训练程序的影响产生了实验预测。一项实验的结果证实了关于自由刺激的预测；另一项实验没有得出预期结果。我们得出结论，多伊奇的理论，就其目前的形式而言，具有有限的普遍性。
