Postcriterion Insertion of a Second Relevant Dimension in a Simple Discrimination Problem
Thirty-one human Ss participated in a discrimination problem having three stages. Stage I involved one relevant dimension and one irrelevant dimension. Ss were trained to a criterion of eight successive correct responses. After reaching criterion on Stage I, Ss began Stage II, in which both the relevant and irrelevant cues from Stage I were maintained, and one more relevant and one more irrelevant dimension were added. At this point, it was possi…
Overlearing Reversal Effect on a Conditional Discrimination Task
Overtraining facilitated reversal learning on a conditional discrimination task. Theoretical issues arise from the fact that, in such a problem, it is difficult to classify cues as either relevant or irrelevant
Effect of a Randomized Intermittent Stimulus on Resistance to Extinction as a Function of Acquisition Training
An experiment was conducted to test the hypothesis that with increasing degrees of acquisition training a response might become increasingly independent of an intermittent cue. Thirty-six albino rats were assigned to two levels of acquisition training and two extinction conditions. It was found that with limited training the intermittent cue operated as a secondary reinforcer; with increased training, however, the secondary reinforcing effect of …
