Introduction: Terrorism as Behavior
Conditional Discrimination vs. Matching to Sample: An Expansion of the Testing Paradigm
A subject's performance under a conditional‐discrimination procedure defines conditional relations between stimuli: “If A1, then B1; if A2, then B2.” The procedure may also generate matching to sample. If so, the stimuli will be related not only by conditionality, but by equivalence: A1 and B1 will become equivalent members of one stimulus class, A2 and B2 of another. One paradigm for testing whether a conditional‐discrimination procedure has gen…
Reading and Auditory-Visual Equivalences
A retarded boy, unable to read printed words orally or with comprehension, could match spoken words to pictures and could name pictures. After being taught to match spoken to printed words, he was then capable of reading comprehension (matching the printed words to pictures) and oral reading (naming the printed words aloud).
Stimulus Control after Intradimensional Discrimination Training
4 rhesus monkeys received intradimensional discrimination training initially at distant and then at near points on a circle-ellipse continuum. The training did not necessarily produce good stimulus control by test-stimulus differences smaller than the original training values. It was concluded that the original controlling stimulus-response relation did not correspond with the relations being evaluated by the generalization test
The relative aversiveness of warning signal and shock in an avoidance situation
Sucrose Concentration as Reinforcement for Lever Pressing by Monkeys
3 rhesus monkeys were given various concentrations of sucrose for lever pressing on a variable interval schedule of reinforcement. 7 sucrose concentrations were studied at 2 levels of food deprivation. The response rates accelerated rapidly with increasing concentrations, and then declined after reaching a maximum, generally between 15 and 30% sucrose concentration. The decline was attributed to a satiation effect. The higher level of food depriv…
