Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) reduces challenging behavior and increases alternative responding when implemented as designed. Deviations from treatment protocols (i.e., fidelity errors) reduce the efficacy of DRA....

Clinicians often implement differential reinforcement of alternative behavior with synthesized alternative reinforcement, which involves the delivery of multiple, qualitatively different reinforcers contingent on a single alternative respon...

We generated analogies based on observed spatiotemporal relations. In Experiment 1, six adults observed arbitrary stimuli in a spatiotemporal sequence (A1 followed by A2, A3, A4, A5 and then A1). Then they were taught to select the first st...

The present study examined pigeons' token accumulation and food reinforcer demand within a token economy using a behavioral economic approach. Six pigeons were exposed to a token reinforcement procedure, in which responses on a token-produc...
Effects of effort sequence and type of consequence in an effort discounting task [0.03%]

Effort discounting refers to the decrease in the subjective value of a reward as the required effort to obtain it increases. This study examined the effects of effort sequence and consequence type on effort discounting in human participants...
Evaluating effects of synchronous music reinforcement on increasing treadmill walking speed in a stepwise fashion [0.03%]

This study evaluated the effects of synchronous music reinforcement on walking speed in a laboratory-based treadmill preparation. Thirty undergraduate students walked on a nonmotorized treadmill for a 15-min session consisting of an initial...
Further evaluation of component skills that facilitate the emergence of intraverbal tacts [0.03%]
进一步评估促进内向性表述发展的成分技能

Nicole A Pantano et al.
Identifying component skills necessary for the emergence of intraverbal tacts, or verbal responses under control of both a verbal and nonverbal antecedent stimulus, is important because the occasion for this skill often occurs in a child's ...

The primary purpose was to study how the expansion of equivalence classes is documented by sorting tests. In two experiments with 40 adult participants, there were three phases of training and testing of emergent relations. In the first pha...
Divided control by past behavior, present stimuli, and future outcome value in a concurrent-chains procedure [0.03%]
一种分离控制方式：在并发连接中通过过去的行为、现在的刺激和未来的结果价值来进行控制
Stephanie Gomes-Ng,Tess Austin,John Y H Bai et al.
Stephanie Gomes-Ng et al.
When multiple stimuli appear to signal behavior-reinforcer contingencies, control may be divided between those stimuli. Such divided stimulus control depends in part on the value of the outcome to the organism, with stimuli signaling more v...
Multiple-context training mitigates renewal during differential reinforcement [0.03%]
多重情境训练可减轻分化强化过程中的更新效应

Christopher A Podlesnik et al.
Renewal occurs when a behavior is reduced in one context but reemerges when transitioning to a different context, which poses challenges for behavioral interventions. This preclinical research evaluated whether multiple-context training cou...
