The “vigor” of water drinking behavior was measured with 11 rats primarily in terms of “tongue pressure”, “lapping rate”, and “amount of ingestion per lap.” After having been trained to drink water from a tube, each S was tested once each for 5 min under high and low thirst drive. The Ss tended to lap with stronger tongue pressure under high drive than under low drive at the later part of the test session. The Ss lapped with significantly higher rate at the first part of the test session. The amount of ingestion per lap was greater under high drive than under low drive. The results were interpreted as suggesting the incentive motivational factor K being a function of time of deprivation
