Pavlovian Control of Escape and Avoidance.
To survive in complex environments, animals need to have mechanisms to select effective actions quickly, with minimal computational costs. As perhaps the computationally most parsimonious of these systems, Pavlovian control accomplishes this by hardwiring specific stereotyped responses to certain classes of stimuli. It is well documented that appetitive cues initiate a Pavlovian bias toward vig...
متن کاملReaction to punishment, reflectivity, and passive avoidance learning in extraverts.
Passive avoidance learning occupies a central role in accounts of disinhibited behavior, ranging from psychopaths' persistent criminality (Hare 1970) to extraverts' gregariousness (Gray, 1972). To explore the mechanism underlying passive avoidance deficits, we assessed the relation of extraversion, neuroticism, and response latency after punishment to passive avoidance learning by using two suc...
متن کاملA Neural Theory of Punishment and Avoidance, II: Quantitative Theory
Quantitative neural networks are derived from psychological postulates about punishment and avoidance. The classical notion that drive reduction is reinforcing is replaced by a precise physiological altetAative akin to Miller's "Go" mechanism and Estes's "amplifier" elements. Cell clusters d} and dj are introduced which supply negative and positive incentive motivation, respectively, for classi...
متن کاملEffects of inescapable shock upon subsequent escape and avoidance responding.
Exposure of dogs to inescapable shocks under a variety of conditions reliably interfered with subsequent instrumental escape-avoidance responding in a new situation. Use of a higher level of shock during instrumental avoidance training did not attenuate interference; this was taken as evidence against an explanation based upon adaptation to shock. Ss curarized during their exposure to inescapab...
متن کاملEscape and avoidance learning in the earthworm Eisenia hortensis
Interest in instrumental learning in earthworms dates back to 1912 when Yerkes concluded that they can learn a spatial discrimination in a T-maze. Rosenkoetter and Boice determined in the 1970s that the "learning" that Yerkes observed was probably chemotaxis and not learning at all. We examined a different form of instrumental learning: the ability to learn both to escape and to avoid an aversi...
