Delay of Verbal Reward in Verbal Conditioning and Selective Learning

Procedures closely modeled on conventional discrimination learning were employed in three experiments on delay of verbal reward ( N = 207). Two verbal responses were conditioned for each S with different delays of reward. Ss chose between the two responses, in a simultaneous presentation situation, on one out of each block of four trials. Forced trials were used to keep the number of short and long delay trials equal. Verbal response speed (1/latency) was measured on forced trials. No effect of delay on choice or speed was found
