COGNITION, BEHAVIOR, AND THE EXPERIMENTAL ANALYSIS OF BEHAVIOR [PDF]

Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 1984
A case history illustrates how one research program in the experimental analysis of behavior evolved somewhat differently from the modal research program represented in this journal. A chief issue that seems to be responsible for this difference is the role attributed to theory in behavioral research: Skinner's views on the nature and function of ...

Concurrent second-order schedules: some effects of variations in response number and duration [PDF]

, 2005
To examine the effects on concurrent performance of independent manipulations of response-unit duration and number, 6 hens were exposed to concurrent second-order schedules of reinforcement.

Contingency discriminability, matching, and bias in the concurrent-schedule responding of possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) [PDF]

, 2003
Six possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) responded under dependent concurrent variable-interval variable- interval schedules of reinforcement. Over 15 conditions, barley–carob was one reinforcer with the other reinforcer consisting of Coco Popst, coconut, or ...

The effects of reinforcer magnitude in the preceding and upcoming ratios on between-ratio pausing in multiple, mixed, and single fixed-ratio schedules.

, 2022
Hens responded under multiple fixed-ratio schedules with equal response requirements and either a 1-s or a 6-s reinforcer. Upcoming reinforcer size was indicated by key color.

Demand equations for qualitatively different foods under fixed-ratioschedules: a comparison of three data conversions [PDF]

, 2009
Concurrent schedules were used to establish 6 hens’ preferences for three foods. The resulting biases suggested wheat was preferred over honey-puffed and puffed wheat, and puffed wheat was the least preferred food.
