Psychology without p values
Although the fledgling psychology of 100 years ago was assertively empirical, there were no inferential statistics to guide psychologists' data analyses. However, 19th-century developments had left psychology with a rich array of techniques for analyzing and presenting data, some of which remain underutilized today. These include comparisons across replications, within-subject designs, reanalysis of data, analyses of factorial designs, and especi…
Psychology without p values
Scientific Graphs and the Hierarchy of the Sciences
Studies comparing the cognitive status of the sciences have long sought to identify the distinguishing features of `hard' and `soft' science. Attempts by philosophers of science to ground such distinctions in abstract principles and by sociologists of science to detect relevant differences (for example, in consensus levels) have met with limited success. However, recent investigations of scientists' concrete practices of data representation provi…
Behavioral Contrast in Pigeons with Qualitatively Different Reinforcers
Three white Carneaux pigeons were trained to respond on a mult VI 1-min. (milo reinforcement), VI 1-min. (pea reinforcement) schedule when each component was associated with a different key, feeder, and reinforcer. The experiment was divided into four phases. In Phases 1 and 3, baseline rates of responding were established. In experimental Phases 2 and 4, one component of the multiple schedule was changed to extinction. During the experimental ph…
Transferable Tokens
Patients in token-economy programs are generally unable to reinforce each other's behavior with tokens and social interaction among patients is usually minimal. In this study, all patients on a token economy ward of a state hospital were given a daily allowance of special transferable tokens in addition to whatever other tokens they earned. Transferable tokens could be spent by any patient except the one to whom they were issued. Both the frequen…
