Abstract

Investigated the effects of CS1 duration, partial reinforcement, and trace conditioning on 2nd-order conditioned suppression. Ss were 64 rats. In Exp. I the clearest 2nd-order conditioning was obtained when CS1 duration was the same during both the 1st- and the 2nd-order conditioning phases of the experiment. In Exp. II somewhat better 2nd-order conditioning was obtained when 1st-order conditioning had been under conditions of partial reinforcement, delay CS-UCS pairing. In neither experiment were CSl suppression and CS2 suppression during 2nd-order testing well correlated. This aspect of the results raised the question of the influence of nonclassical conditioning factors on the conditioned suppression measure of emotional conditioning.
