Patellar Reflex. 47 relaxation on the part of the subject, who previously may have stiffenedthe body somewhat preparatory to receiving the heavier blow on thetendon, which usually caused in his case a violent reflex. A, 30 grams and 50 grams, tend to show results which are opposed tothose for the amplitudes of the first reflex. The opposition is mostclearly marked in periods 2, 3, and 4, with the reflexes from 30-jramstimuli. Whether this tendency is an alcohol effect, an individual pecu-liarity, or a normal phenomenon can not be determined with certainty,as there are insufficient normal data for refractory-phase phenomenaon this and other subjects with which the alcohol data may be com-pared. The original records for the second series of patellar reflexeswith Subject VI show frequent instances in which an extraordinarilylarge A was followed by a diminished A, or vice versa,
