Contextual control in habituation: Diminution and potentiation of the startle response in humans.

The study examines the effects of context change on the habituation of the startle response in humans. In Experiment 1 the startle response was measured in three phases: pre-test, habituation, and post-test. For one group, the phases occurred in the same context, while for another, the habituation p...

The study examines the effects of context change on the habituation of the startle response in humans. In Experiment 1 the startle response was measured in three phases: pre-test, habituation, and post-test. For one group, the phases occurred in the same context, while for another, the habituation phase occurred in a different context. The results indicated that the different group had a more marked decrease between the pre-test and post-test than the same group. In Experiment 2, the same design was replicated, and the same results were obtained as in Experiment 1, although a different stimulus was used in the pre-test and post-test. Although the results are not statistically conclusive, they suggest that the context could be acquiring long-term potentiating properties that reduce the level of decrement that would be observed if only a habituation process existed. El estudio examina los efectos del cambio de contexto en la habituación de la respuesta de sobresalto en humanos. En el Experimento 1 se midió la respuesta de sobresalto en tres fases: preprueba, habituación y posprueba. Para un grupo, las fases ocurrieron en el mismo contexto, mientras que para otro, la fase de habituación ocurrió en un contexto distinto. Los resultados indicaron que el grupo diferente tuvo una disminución más marcada entre la preprueba y la posprueba que el grupo igual. En el Experimento 2, se replicó el mismo diseño y se obtuvieron los mismos resultados que en el Experimento 1, pese a que en la preprueba y la posprueba se utilizó un estímulo distinto. Aunque los resultados no son estadísticamente concluyentes, estos sugieren que el contexto podría estar adquiriendo propiedades potenciadoras de largo plazo que reducen el nivel de decremento que se observaría si sólo existiera un proceso de habituación.
