In Exercise 8, the CS Response Strength Window showed different curves for the low-intensity light (CSLL) and high-intensity tone (CSHT) that were in use during the overshadowing experimental treatment. The different curves corresponded to the greater salience of the tone. Which of the following aspects of the movement-ratio results from the experimental condition was most consistent with the CS-response-strength results?
a. The rapid growth of the movement ratio in the first few trials of Stage 1 (acquisition)
b. Values of the movement ratio in excess of 0.5 during Stage 1
c. The much larger movement ratio for the tone than for the light in Stage 2 (extinction)
d. The much larger movement ratio for the light than for the tone in Stage 2
c. The much larger movement ratio for the tone than for the light in Stage 2 (extinction)
Answer feedback: The difference exhibited in the CS-response-strength results is most clearly reflected in the movement-ratio results from Stage 2, namely, that the movement ratio for the tone was much greater than the movement ratio for the light.
