Fluid intake of rats was restricted to either 5% or 20% alcohol for 10, 30, or 90 days. Ss were then trained in a triple-lever apparatus to press for food, water, and the alcohol solution previously experienced. The 5% groups preferred 5% alcohol to water, the 20% groups preferred water to 20% alcohol, and controls (without alcohol experience) refused both concentrations. Resistance to extinction on the alcohol bar was directly related to the duration of the pretesting drinking time, and not to the number of reinforcements in the bar-press situation. It is hypothesized that" the stress-relieving component of alcohol became manifest during extinction." From Psyc Abstracts 36: 05: 5DK10M.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
