Abstract

Observed state-dependent learning in 185 naive albino Sprague-Dawley rats when learning followed stress by the intermediate-length interval presumed to involve greatest stimulus change, but only if the source of the stress was avoidance learning and not if it was inescapable shocks. Results support a memory-retrieval interpretation of the Kamin effect. (37 ref.) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)
