Conditioning-specific reflex modification (CRM) occurs when classical conditioning modifies responding to an unconditioned stimulus in the absence of a conditioned stimulus. This form of reflex modification suggests that learning modifies the unconditioned reflex pathway. Rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) nictitating membrane responses to 5 intensities and 3 durations of airpuff (AP) or periorbital electrical stimulation (ES) were monitored before and after conditioning. AP tests detected strong CRM after conditioning with ES and modest levels of CRM after conditioning with AP. After conditioning with AP, ES tests failed to detect CRM. After conditioning with a stronger AP, CRM was again detected by AP tests. CRM is a general phenomenon but is more readily detected after training with a relatively aversive stimulus; thus, it may be a function of level of arousal.
