A method was developed for studying the reactions of rats to aversive shock. The distinctive features were the design of the chamber and a method of restraint that allowed the use of surface electrodes to deliver the shock. Advantages of this method were: (1) accurate specification of the shock actually received by the rat; (2) elimination of all unauthorized escape or avoidance reactions; (3) elimination of the shock scramblers and floor grids required with foot-shock; and, (4) rapid acquisition of performance under various avoidance procedures and various frequencies of shock delivery.
开发了一种研究大鼠对厌恶电击反应的方法。其独特之处在于电击室的设计和一种约束方法，该方法允许使用表面电极施加电击。这种方法的优点包括：（1）能准确确定大鼠实际受到的电击；（2）消除所有未经授权的逃脱或回避反应；（3）无需电击足底时所需的电击扰乱器和地板格栅；（4）在各种回避程序和不同电击频率下能快速获得行为表现。
