These were the reinforcers, the individuals and groups who were k-factor amplifiers.
2
Equal frequencies of reinforcers were provided for the two types of correct choice.
3
Larger reinforcers produced larger and longer postreinforcer preference pulses than did smaller reinforcers.
4
The ratio of reinforcers changed seven times across two levers within sessions, modeling a dynamic environment.
5
Four pigeons were exposed to a token-based self-control procedure with stimulus lights serving as token reinforcers.
6
Consumption of nicotine gum, but not denicotinized cigarettes, diminished when all three reinforcers were concurrently available.
7
Drugs with high abuse liability are positive reinforcers in that they maintain behavior leading to their consumption.
8
Sessions consisted of seven components, each lasting 10 reinforcers, with the conditions of reinforcement differing between components.
9
Operant boxes are used to assess learning and motivational behavior in animals, particularly for food and drug reinforcers.
10
Over conditions, number of reinforcers per component was varied from 4 to 12.
11
The present study shows that haloperidol, a dopamine antagonist, does not eliminate the reinforcing value of food reinforcers.
12
In Part 1, the arranged overall reinforcer rate was 2.22 reinforcers per minute.
13
Other areas of emerging interest are the effect of feeding regimens, alternative reinforcers, and social conditions on drug-reinforced behavior.
14
Within each part, the relative rate of food reinforcers available on the alternatives was varied across a wide range.
15
As reported in previous research, both increasing travel time and decreasing probabilities of reinforcers per second increased patch residence time.
16
Choice changed rapidly within components as reinforcers were delivered and, following each reinforcer, shifted toward the alternative that produced it.
