The effects of context change on long-term habituation of the orienting response in humans.

摘要: Four experiments examined the effects of context change (Experiments 1–3) and extinction (Experiment 4) on long-term habituation skin conductance response. In all experiments, subjects received 15 presentations a target stimulus in each two sessions. Experiment 1 (N=60) there was 15-min interval between training test This extended to 24 hours Experiments 2 3 (N=60). The experimental treatment these studies involved None provided evidence dependency measures habituation. 4 period during which they remained laboratory environment series trials. Again, however, no that contextually mediated. Thus, results fail uniformly support theories argue habituation...
