Effects of Response-Independent Electric Shock on Schedule-Induced Alcohol and Water Intake
In 3 experiments, food-deprived rats either lever-pressing for intermittent food pellets or obtaining them on free-fixed interval schedules displayed schedule-induced water and alcohol polydipsia. Concurrent response-independent electric shock attenuated water intake, shock intensities producing reductions in polydipsic water consumption had little effect upon alcohol intake, but shocks of sufficient intensity did attenuate post-pellet alcohol dr…
Alcohol and Conflict; The Role of Self-Intoxication in a Punishment Discrimination by Rats
Alcohol had no effect on appetitive or approach behavior in rats and did not reduce conflict after the initial shock experience. Alcohol-treated rats pressed the bar less efficiently because alcohol impaired discrimination
Alcohol and Conflict; Role of Drug-Dependent Learning in the Rat
In alcohol- and water-treated rats which received an electric shock after running down an alley to press a bar for food, alcohol did not influence approach measures, but significantly affected the development of conflict. Groups whose fluid was switched failed to transfer learning, suggesting a drug-dependent effect
Effects of Conflict upon Schedule-Induced Consumption of Water and Alcohol
Schedule-induced polydipsic consumption of water and ethanol was conditioned in two groups of 6 Charles River rats which were then exposed to approach-avoidance (food-shock) conflict. Water intake was attenuated by conflict but ethanol consumption remained essentially unaltered. Alcohol's pharmacodynamic effect was implicated as responsible for differences in fluid consumption by the two groups

Effect of Alcohol on Conflict Behaviors
40 Charles River (cd) rats were trained to run down a 15-ft. alley and bar press for food in a 2 × 2 analysis of variance design with alcohol and control treatments and two conflict-producing methodologies. In Exp. 1, conflict was induced by shocking S when it bar pressed; in Exp. II, when S touched the food dish. After approach-avoidance conflict was established, half the Ss in each experiment were injected intraperitoneally with 2.0 cc/100 gm. …
Interpersonal Values of Hospitalized Alcoholic Psychiatric Patients
Value structures of 39 hospitalized psychiatric patients manifesting alcoholism were compared with those of 29 hospitalized psychiatric patients without alcoholism on the Survey of Interpersonal Values. Both groups, perhaps because of their institutionalization, had their highest scores on a scale probing “Conformity.” The alcoholic group had significantly low scores on “Leadership” which was indicative of not placing value on power, authority, a…
The Effect of Alcohol upon Approach-Avoidance Conflict in the White Rat
Effects of hunger, shock and alcohol on approach-avoidance conflict were studied in 80 Charles River (cd) male rats, 6 weeks old, weighing 150 to 200 g at the start of the experiment. The subjects were trained to run for food in a 15-foot straight runway and were later shocked at the food dish to induce the conflict. An analysis of variance design was employed with high and low hunger (weight reduction 70 to 80% and 95 to 100% of free-feeding wei…
Ethnic Identification of Hospitalized Jewish Psychiatric Patients
Opinions of Psychiatric Hospital Personnel and College Students toward Alcoholism, Mental Illness, and Physical Disability
This exploratory study investigated the attitudes of 303 college students and 521 psychiatric hospital staff members toward alcoholism, mental illness, and physical disability. The Attitude Toward Disabled Persons Scale was adapted to yield two additional scales probing alcoholism and mental illness. Statistically significant differences were not found between the mean scores of the college students and the hospital personnel on the scales. Both …
