Book Description
A procedural modification was developed in order to clarify the results of testing the hypothesis that within certain intensity ranges, the perceived stimulus intensity is a monotonically increasing function of drive and the actual stimulus intensity. This change in procedure prevented the formation of negative gradients which eleminated a possible effect due to variation in the response threshold and the distances between the training stimuli. It was found that there were significant curve shifts under the two drive conditions, thus supporting the experimental hypothesis. However, the effects found were generally weaker than those observed under the previously used procedure. (Author).

Book Description
Two groups of pigeons, one given high shock and the other low shock, were trained to peck at a key for food reinforcement. Responses were reinforced in the presence of a tone and extinguished in its absence. Following training, Ss were given the opposite shock intensity and tested for generalization under conditions of extinction to a series of seven auditory stimuli varying in intensity. The predicted drive-stimulus interaction effect seems to occur only briefly after a drive shift. An analysis of the gradients in terms of successive trial blocks showed that the generalization curves, regardless of the direction of the shift in shock level, tended to shift past S(D) away from S(delta). This tendency increased as a function of the extinction process. Several alternative explanations for these effects are discussed but the data do not allow the establishment of the validity of one explanation over another. (Author).
The Selected Works of R.B. Zajonc
Author: Robert B. ZajoncPublisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN:
Category : Psychology

Pages : 438
Book Description
Over the last four decades, R. B. Zajonc has continually pushed the limits of social psychology. Whether in the area of cognitive structure, social motives, affect and cognition, family structure and intelligence, or group hostility, Zajonc's contributions have opened up new avenues of thinking and research, and at times have heralded significant new trends in the field. This impressive collection of Zajonc's papers captures his quintessential style of research -- a style that is characterized by both simplicity and an effort to penetrate the fundamentals of social behavior. The text will bring historical depth and a strong sense of classical research to one and two semester social psychology courses. It is also the perfect compliment for the other two texts in Wiley's social psychology series: The Selected Works of Edward E. Jones by Daniel T. Gilbert and Social Beings: A Core Motives Approach to Social Psychology by Susan Fiske.
