Cockroaches Show Individuality in Learning and Memory During Classical and Operant Conditioning [PDF]
Animal personality and individuality are intensively researched in vertebrates and both concepts are increasingly applied to behavioral science in insects.

Placebo hypoalgesia induced by operant conditioning: a comparative study on the effects of verbal, token-based, and social rewards and punishers [PDF]
Operant conditioning was shown to be a mechanism of placebo hypoalgesia; however, only verbal rewards and punishers were applied in the previous study.

Temporal prediction error triggers amygdala-dependent memory updating in appetitive operant conditioning in rats [PDF]
Reinforcement learning theories postulate that prediction error, i.e., a discrepancy between the actual and expected outcomes, drives reconsolidation and new learning, inducing an updating of the initial memory.

Low-dimensional signatures of neuronal activity associated with long-term operant conditioning in Aplysia [PDF]
Operant conditioning is a form of learning in which a behavior is reinforced by reward. Operant conditioning has multiple temporal domains, ranging from short-term, lasting a few minutes, to long-term, persisting for at least 24 h.

Operant Conditioning in Skinnerbots [PDF]
Instrumental (or operant) conditioning, a form of animal learning, is similar to reinforcement learning (Watkins, 1989) in that it allows an agent to adapt its actions to gain maximally from the environment while being rewarded only for correct performance.

Operant conditioning of stochastic chemical reaction networks. [PDF]
Adapting one's behavior to environmental conditions and past experience is a key trait of living systems. In the biological world, there is evidence for adaptive behaviors such as learning even in naturally occurring, non-neural, single-celled organisms.

High-throughput automated methods for classical and operant conditioning of Drosophila larvae [PDF]
Learning which stimuli (classical conditioning) or which actions (operant conditioning) predict rewards or punishments can improve chances of survival.

Animal training relies heavily on an understanding of species-specific behaviour as it integrates with operant conditioning principles. Following on from recent studies showing that affective states and arousal levels may correlate with behavioural ...

Direct Pathway Neurons in the Mouse Ventral Striatum Are Active During Goal-Directed Action but Not Reward Consumption During Operant Conditioning [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Learning is classically modeled to consist of an acquisition period followed by a mastery period when the skill no longer requires conscious control and becomes automatic.

Machine Psychology: integrating operant conditioning with the non-axiomatic reasoning system for advancing artificial general intelligence research [PDF]
This paper presents an interdisciplinary framework, Machine Psychology, which integrates principles from operant learning psychology with a particular Artificial Intelligence model, the Non-Axiomatic Reasoning System (NARS), to advance Artificial General
