The Predictably Unpredictable Operant
Animals can learn to repeat a response when reinforcement is contingent upon accurate repetitions or to vary when reinforcement is contingent upon variability. In the first case, individual responses can readily be predicted; in the latter, prediction may be difficult or impossible. Particular levels of variability or (un)predictability can be reinforced, including responses that approximate a ...
متن کاملIndividual emergency physician admission rates: predictably unpredictable.
OBJECTIVE We sought to determine the degree and possible causes of variability in admission practices among individual emergency physicians (EPs) at 1 emergency department (ED) using a Canadian Emergency Department Triage Acuity Scale (CTAS)-matched ED patient population. METHODS We distributed a survey measuring attitudes and demographics to all EPs (n = 30) at a large regional hospital. Hos...
متن کاملD Isagreement Is Unpredictable
Given common priors, no agent can publicly estimate a non-zero sign for the difference between his estimate and another agent’s future estimate. Thus rational agents cannot publicly anticipate the direction in which other agents will disagree with them. 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملHormones and temporal components of speech: sex differences and effects of menstrual cyclicity on speech.
Voice onset time (VOT) is a salient acoustic parameter of speech which signals the 'voiced' and 'voiceless' status of plosives in English (e.g. the initial sound in 'bat' versus the initial sound in 'pat'). As a micro-temporal acoustic parameter, VOT may be sensitive to changes in hormones which may affect the neuromuscular systems involved in speech production. This study adopted a novel appro...
متن کاملMenstrual cyclicity of finger joint size and grip strength in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
Daily measurements of finger joint size, grip strength, and body weight have been made throughout 2 complete menstrual cycles in 7 female patients with rheumatoid arthritis and 6 healthy female controls. Sine wave analysis showed significant individual cyclical rhythms (p less than 0.05) for finger joint size (5 patients, 4 controls), nude weight (5 patients, 3 controls), and grip strength (4 p...
