Abstract

Parametric manipulation of Sidman avoidance produced different kinds of performances in subjects, which were tested while under amphetamine treatment. The results were found to be incompatible with the principles of the stimulus control theory of Weiss and Laties as well as other general and particular explanations of the drug's effect. An explanation was suggested in terms of general arousal and individual differences.
