In order to control response latency, goat's leg was subjected to a specifiable external force which produced a passive forward movement of the leg. A shock to the paw was contingent on its passive forward movement of 12 cm. A stimulus (45-watt light, 1200-msec duration) preceded the external force by 200 msec in one session and 1200 msec in another. The amount of inhibition with which S resisted by responding to the stimulus on a trial was obtained from the extent of the passive forward movement of the paw. The results from administration of test stimuli (18, 36, 63, and 100 watts) show that the stimulus intensity effect depends on response latency. The stimulus intensity effect was then interpreted in terms of stimulus intensity-duration reciprocal relationship and response latency
