Effects of Verbalization and Task Change Sensitivity on the Optional Shift Behavior of Kindergarten Children
The effects of verbalization and method of task presentation on children's optional shift behavior are reported. Ninety-six kindergarten boys and girls made optional shifts consistent with the dimension verbalized in original learning. However, many children shifted directly to the cue actually reinforced in original learning (a "Regressive" shift). This type of shift was attributed to one of two procedural changes: the absence of reward for any …
A developmental study of hypothesis testing and cue selection strategies
Reinforcer Acquisition in Discrimination Learning
This experiment extended an earlier study in which a buzzer sound was combined in pretraining with “Right” or “Wrong.” A two-choice discrimination learning task was presented immediately following the pretraining. Children learned that the buzz had meaning (in a direction opposite the verbal statement with which it was combined). In the present experiment, Nothing (N, E's silence) wa5 examined instead of the buzz. The data indicated that Nothing,…
