Transitive responding in pigeons: influences of stimulus frequency and reinforcement history.
Fersen et al. (1991) (J. Exp. Psychol.: Anim. Behav. Process., 17: 334-341) trained pigeons to discriminate four overlapping pairs of stimuli A + B -, B + C -, C + D - and D + E - (+ rewarded, - penalized). When subsequently tested with a pair BD the pigeons showed a strong preference for stimulus B. A special value transfer theory was offered as an explanation for this transitive responding. A...
متن کاملRisky choice in pigeons: preference for amount variability using a token-reinforcement system.
Pigeons were given repeated choices between variable and fixed numbers of token reinforcers (stimulus lamps arrayed above the response keys), with each earned token exchangeable for food. The number of tokens provided by the fixed-amount option remained constant within blocks of sessions, but varied parametrically across phases, assuming values of 2, 4, 6, or 8 tokens per choice. The number of ...
متن کاملUltrasonic and Cooling Approaches for Reinforcement of the Microextraction Methods
Since solid-phase and liquid-phase microextraction (SPME and LPME) were introduced, as effective solvent-free methods, many efforts have been made to improve their modes and applications. However, due to limitations with sensitivity and efficiency, researchers have focused on improving the performance of their basic primary modes. In this way, in recent years, different methods such as ultrason...
متن کامل5-HT(1A) Receptor Null Mutant Mice Responding Under a Differential-Reinforcement-of-Low-Rate 72-Second Schedule of Reinforcement.
Over the last two decades, our ever-increasing ability to manipulate the mouse genome has resulted in a variety of genetically defined mouse models of depression and other psychiatric and neurological disorders. However, it is still the case that some relevant rodent models for depression and antidepressant action have been validated experimentally in rats only and not in mice. An important exa...
متن کاملEffects of continuous and intermittent reinforcement for problem behavior during functional communication training.
We evaluated the effectiveness of functional communication training (FCT) in reducing problem behavior and in strengthening alternative behavior when FCT was implemented without extinction. Following the completion of functional analyses in which social-positive reinforcement was identified as the maintaining variable for 5 participants' self-injurious behavior (SIB) and aggression, the partici...
