Journal ArticleDOI
A comparison of responses and stimuli as time markers
TL;DR: A comparison of performance between the two groups showed a lower response rate in the DRL procedure than in the yoked control procedure, but similar response patterns were observed, suggesting that rats anticipated the food similarly with a stimulus or a response as the time marker.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response suppression as a function of the schedule of punishment
TL;DR: In this article, a variable-interval schedule of punishment was compared to a fixed-ratio schedule of punishing, even under conditions that roughly equated the frequency of punishments.
Journal Article
The lack of behavioral effects of fenbendazole: a medication for pinworm infection.
TL;DR: Fenbendazole reduced the detection of pinworm eggs, and it had no significant behavioral effects across multiple levels of analysis (e.g., from overall response rates to response patterns to interresponse intervals), suggesting that behavioral studies are unlikely to be influenced by fenbENDazole treatment given before or during a study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Response Rates Are Governed More by Time Cues Than Contingency
TL;DR: The present experiment suggests that the comparison of instrumental and classical tasks has overlooked temporal cues that are often confounded with response contingency, and that the time cues exert a critical influence on response rate.
