“[焦虑]的程度是通过它对.的影响来衡量的。重复呈现一种由电击终止的音调，会产生一种对音调的焦虑状态。因此，当电击之前有一段时间的焦虑时，它在行为上产生的干扰比“意外的”电击要广泛得多。在对杠杆的反应的实验性消退期间，音调产生了反应速率的降低，终止冲击之后是速率的补偿性增加，这可能恢复了消退曲线的原始投影高度。条件性焦虑状态消失时，音调是提出了一个较长的时间没有终止休克。第二天，从这次灭绝中自发恢复的过程几乎完全完成。“（PsycINFO数据库记录（c）2016阿帕，保留所有权利）
" The magnitude of [anxiety] is measured by its effect upon… the rate with which [hungry] rats pressed a lever under periodic reinforcement with food. Repeated presentations of a tone terminated by an electric shock produced a state of anxiety in response to the tone…. When the shock was thus preceded by a period of anxiety it produced a much more extensive disturbance in behavior than an'unanticipated'shock…. During experimental extinction of the response to the lever the tone produced a decrease in the rate of responding, and the terminating shock was followed by a compensatory increase in rate which probably restored the original projected height of the extinction curve. The conditioned anxiety state was extinguished when the tone was presented for a prolonged period without the terminating shock. Spontaneous recovery from this extinction was nearly complete on the following day."(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
