Some factors influencing conditioned and spontaneous behavior of rats in the light-dark box test.

Abstract:

:Step-through and exit latencies in the light-dark box test were used to examine the effects of unconditioned exploration, the physical characteristics of the apparatus and detention on passive and active avoidance. Experiment 1, in which the subjects (Ss) received inescapable shocks in the dark chamber, shows that omission of the free exploration of the apparatus does not significantly affect acquisition and retention of either of the learned responses. Further, passive avoidance, compared with active avoidance is, by far, the better consolidated response. Experiment 2, which is the reverse of Experiment 1, (the dark chamber becomes the safe box, and the punishments are administered in the light chamber) emphasizes the role played by the physical characteristics of the two chambers of the apparatus. This role is shown by the improvement of the active avoidance response. Experiment 3 confirms the importance of detention in influencing the behavior of conditioned and control Ss. These results underscore the basic differences of active and passive avoidance responses.
