Rate of response under a free-operant avoidance procedure decreases as the response-shock interval increases. The present experiment demonstrated an inverse relation between rate of response and lever-holding time. An invariance was found in the total time per session that a subject was in contact with the lever. It is suggested that lever-holding behavior may be as sensitive as response rate to changes in the response-shock interval.
在自由操作回避程序下,反应速率会随着反应-电击间隔的增加而降低。本实验证明了反应速率与杠杆握持时间之间呈反比关系。研究发现,受试者每次实验中与杠杆接触的总时间保持不变。有人认为,杠杆握持行为对反应-电击间隔变化的敏感度可能与反应速率一样高。
