Experience with dynamic reinforcement rates decreases resistance to extinction

open access: yesJournal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2016
The ability of organisms to detect reinforcer‐rate changes in choice preparations is positively related to two factors: the magnitude of the change in rate and the frequency with which rates change. Gallistel (2012) suggested similar rate‐detection processes are responsible for decreases in responding during operant extinction.
