Abstract
The results were contradictory in determining the effect of electric shock on human subjects in eye-hand coordination as measured by the Travis Pursuit-Oscillator. Shocks facilitated learning in the exptl. situation wherein shocks were administered during alternating trials only. Shocks were deleterious to learning in the situation wherein shocks were administered during each trial. Learning took place, however, in all situations despite the electric shocks.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
