Pretraining refers to events or conditions explicitly arranged prior to the learner (e.g., student, employee) experiencing specific instruction within the learning environment (i.e., training). Such pretraining can occur inside or outside o...
Response-specificity or response-generality of inhibition in an operant feature-negative discrimination: Influence of the amount of inhibition training and attention to the response [0.03%]
操作性特征负辨别中抑制的反应特异性和反应泛化:抑制训练量和对反应注意的影响

Mark E Bouton et al.
The suppression of behavior that occurs in instrumental extinction is strikingly specific to the response. In contrast, Steinfeld and Bouton (2022) recently reported that inhibition developing in an operant feature-negative (FN) discriminat...
Sociability versus empathy in adolescent mice: Different or distinctive? [0.03%]
青春期小鼠的社会性与共情能力:不同还是有区别?

In recent years, a growing number of pre-clinical studies have made use of the social abilities of mice, asking how gene variants (e.g., null, transgenic or mutant alleles) give rise to abnormalities in neurodevelopment. Two distinct course...
Response-specific effects of punishment of a discriminated operant response [0.03%]
操作性反应辨别刺激下的惩罚效应分析

Matthew C Broomer
To determine whether the punishment of a discriminated operant behavior has effects that are specific to the punished response, rats were reinforced for performing two different instrumental responses (lever pressing and chain pulling) in t...
Written or drawn episodic future thinking cues improves delay discounting in adults [0.03%]
书面或绘制的连续未来思维提示改善了成人的延迟折扣能力

Delay discounting (DD) describes choices between small, immediate rewards and larger, delayed rewards. Individuals who are high in DD favor small, immediate rewards, and this preference is related to health behaviors including higher energy...

Executive functioning and happiness are each associated with successful learning and other desirable individual and societal outcomes; however, it is unclear whether a relation exists between them. Executive regulation of happiness pursuits...
Evaluating Extinction, Renewal, and Resurgence of Operant Behavior in Humans with Amazon Mechanical Turk [0.03%]
用Amazon Mechanical Turk评估操作性行为的灭绝、恢复和涌现现象(人类)
Carolyn M Ritchey,Toshikazu Kuroda,Jillian M Rung et al.
Carolyn M Ritchey et al.
Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is a crowdsourcing marketplace providing researchers with the opportunity to collect behavioral data from remote participants at a low cost. Recent research demonstrated reliable extinction effects, as well as...
Individual variation in the vigor and form of Pavlovian conditioned responses: Analysis of a model system [0.03%]
巴甫洛夫经典条件反射活力和形式的个体差异分析模型系统

Robert C Honey
Pavlovian conditioning results in individual variation in the vigor and form of acquired behaviors. Here, we describe a general-process model of associative learning (HeiDI; How excitation and inhibition determine ideo-motion) that provides...

During the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic panic buying of food was reported by the media. Panic buying has received little attention within behavioural science. In this paper we suggest that optimality models of foraging under risk and uncertainty ...

Low motivation to learn in undergraduate general education courses hinders learning. Research has identified strategies that increase motivation to learn before students are asked to learn content (e.g., outlining the utility of the course ...
