Influence of upright posture on shock-elicited aggression in rats.
Authors:Knutson  John F; Hynan  Michael T
Abstract:Conducted 2 experiments with a total of 140 male and 140 female hooded rats. In Exp. I, frequencies of upright postural responses displayed by Ss when shocked alone were predictive of upright postural response frequencies during shock-elicited aggression. These differences in upright postural frequencies were associated with differences in frequencies of aggression in male Ss only. Exp. II manipulated upright postural responses. Results suggest that the upright behavior of Ss could be controlled in the shock-elicited-aggression paradigm. Only a slight influence on the aggression of female Ss was obtained. Experimental findings suggest that the upright postural behavior is not a major variable in the provocation to attack in the shock-elicited paradigm. (19 ref.)
