Familial vulnerability for experimental neurosis

Familial vulnerability for experimental neurosis

W G Reese. Pavlov J Biol Sci. 1978 Jul-Sep.

Abstract

This summary review of work from one specialized laboratory provides background for the ensuing theoretical discussion concerning experimental neurosis in one inbred strain of purebred pointers. These animals respond selectively to negative reinforcements provided adventitiously in the laboratory environment. The inherited vulnerability of this neurotic strain is contrasted with the high "immunity" of a parallel line in the same laboratory environment.
