Abstract
"Tension" is discussed as the basis of a unifying theory of non-goal-directed behavior. An expt. is described in which animals "expecting" food are shown to run significantly farther in a squirrel-cage for 1 min. than do animals who are not "expecting" food.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
