The effects of ethanol on avoidanceavoidance conflict behavior were examined, utilizing a 3-x -3 factorial design in which rats were trained and tested after drinking sugar-water solutions containing 0, 3, or 6 % ethanol. Avoidance tendencies were established by initially training rats to escape fro
Dogs, rhesus monkeys and rats were trained to avoid electric shock by using different discrete conditioned avoidance response procedures. Chlorpromazine selectively blocked avoidance behavior in the rat, but non-selectively blocked both avoidance and escape behavior in the dog and monkey. Morphine w
