Heart rate was measured before and after an 85-db. sound, 1 sec. in duration. 40 trials were given to each of 120 neonates (1-4 days of age), with interstimulus intervals of 15, 30, or 60 sec. Acceleration was noted on all trials, and was greater in older Ss. Response decrement appeared across trials, and was not related to age, sex, or interstimulus interval. It is concluded that the decrement is not due to neural fatigue, but may be an indicator of the habituation of arousal; the results suggest that the tonic arousal reaction habituates more readily than the phasic one.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
