Children often learn the names of objects incidentally-that is without direct instruction or programmed reinforcement-simply by observing others label novel objects. A number of contextual cues have been deemed important in the development ...
Evaluating the combined effects of renewal and response-dependent reinstatement [0.03%]
评估更新和反应依赖性再现的联合效应

Ryan T Kimball et al.
Renewal is a form of treatment relapse that occurs due to a change in context but in the absence of a change in contingencies. Recent prevalence data suggest that renewal may commonly occur in clinical settings, threatening the durability o...
Does e-cigarette nicotine strength influence substitution for combustible cigarettes? [0.03%]
电子烟尼古丁含量对香烟的替代效应影响大吗?

Jeffrey S Stein et al.
Using the Experimental Tobacco Marketplace, we examined the effects of e-liquid freebase nicotine strength (3-24 mg/mL) and e-liquid price (US$0.25-$1.00/mL) on behavioral economic substitution for cigarettes in dual cigarette/e-cigarette (...

The purpose of this study was to test Carrigan and Sidman's (1992) hypothesis that the emergence of equivalence relations from the standard matching-to-sample (MTS) procedure is due to the exclusive acquisition of select conditional relatio...

Reward delays are often associated with reduced probability of reward, although standard assessments of delay discounting do not specify degree of reward certainty. Thus, the extent to which estimates of delay discounting are influenced by ...
Rule following as choice: The role of reinforcement rate and rule accuracy on rule-following behavior [0.03%]
规则遵守与选择:强化频率和规则准确性对行为规范遵从的影响
David Ruiz,Adam Fox,Raúl Narayanam Rodriguez
David Ruiz
Rules can control the listener's behavior, yet few studies have examined variables that quantitatively determine the extent of this control relative to other rules and contingencies. To explore these variables, we employed a novel procedure...

Decreasing funding for nonhuman animal research decreases the opportunity for students and researchers to explore the behavior of many species in many contexts. In the long run, this will reduce variability within the experimental analysis ...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of interfering with verbal and visual mediation in groups that received different training sequences in the intraverbal naming task. Experiment 1 examined the effects of disrupting verbal...
Polydrug abuse: Choice between drugs as a function of concurrent nonindependent ratio sizes [0.03%]

Richard A Meisch
Polydrug abuse is the persistent self-administration of more than one reinforcing drug. The present study provided rhesus monkeys concurrent access to two drugs: 8% alcohol and solutions of either cocaine or methadone. The liquids were avai...
