Abstract
The increase in sensitivity of a photographic layer by pre-illumination, the Clayden effect and the Villard effect are explained as special cases of the influence of multiple exposure on a sensitive layer. It is shown that the known fact can be explained by the theory of the intermittent effect which is based on the assumption of the inertia of electron processes in AgBr crystals.
