The experimental paradigm that Dr. Steve Maier uses to conduct experiments on behavioral control of an intense stressor
The experimental paradigm that Dr. Steve Maier uses to conduct experiments on behavioral control of an intense stressor in rats is carefully controlled. Fill out the following table to show the experimental set-up, indicating which variables are similar between each group, and which are different, what the animal does to obtain behavioral control, and what it means/the importance of being yoked [Total = 5 points] Group Name Indicate the experimental variable that all groups have in common (compared to home cage control) Note - your answer will be the same for each box in this row. Indicate an experimental variable, (or its control condition), for each group Indicate a different experimental variable, (or its control condition), for each group What behavior does a rat perform to provide behavioral control over the intense stressor? In this context, what does it mean to be yoked, and why is this important? Control Inescapable stress Escapable stress
