Book excerpt: The purpose of this study ms to determine the effects of different prohabiJ-ity schedules of reinforcement over a series of successive reversals in a two-choice learning situation. Five equal probability schedules of reinforcement were employed: 100:00, 90^10, 80:20, 70*30? and 60:40. The main dependent variable was the number of responses to the more frequently reinforced bar. The experimental ^s were rats of the Sprague- Dawley strain. The results showed that different probability schedules of reinforcement in successive probability reversals had differential effects on the terminal response levels. In regard to mean response level the groups divided their responses into proportions which tended to equal or match the probability of the scheduled events. Individual ^s did not reflect the mean terminal response levels of their respective groups, i.e., they did not match their respective probability schedules of reinforcement. The general shap® of the curves were not congruent with statistical learning theory. They were discrepant in that the initial response probabilities were extremely divergent from their predicted ones, and in that they did not reflect the usual negatively accelerated growth characteristics. An error anlaysis of the response patterns suggested that a pre-experimentally induced strategy, set or mode of responding may have been operating throughout the entire reversal series. The findings of the error analysis along with the aforementioned findings were discussed in regard to the inadequacy of statistical learning theory to explain the results of this study.

Download or read book Schedules of Reinforcement written by B. F. Skinner and published by B. F. Skinner Foundation. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 794 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contingent relationship between actions and their consequences lies at the heart of Skinner’s experimental analysis of behavior. Particular patterns of behavior emerge depending upon the contingencies established. Ferster and Skinner examined the effects of different schedules of reinforcement on behavior. An extraordinary work, Schedules of Reinforcement represents over 70,000 hours of research primarily with pigeons, though the principles have now been experimentally verified with many species including human beings. At first glance, the book appears to be an atlas of schedules. And so it is, the most exhaustive in existence. But it is also a reminder of the power of describing and explaining behavior through an analysis of measurable and manipulative behavior-environment relations without appealing to physiological mechanisms in the brain. As en exemplar and source for the further study of behavioral phenomena, the book illustrates the scientific philosophy that Skinner and Ferster adopted: that a science is best built from the ground up, from a firm foundation of facts that can eventually be summarized as scientific laws.

Volume II disdcusses the diverse putative physiologial roles of MSH and MCH. A concluding chapter of this volume provides a discussion of the possible evolutionary relationships between MSH and MCH in the control of color change.

Book excerpt: Psychophysiology: Today and Tomorrow focuses on the most important theoretical aspects and practical outlets of the problem, as well as the main potentialities and interests of psychophysiology. Organized into 23 chapters, this book begins with the identification of component systems for syntax, verbal memory, focusing attention, and a system common to sequencing motor movements and phonemic discrimination. Subsequent chapter elucidates neurophysiological correlates of mental processes in man. Other chapters explore relations between electrical brain rhythms and behavior; brain exploration in psychophysiology; potentialities of neurophysiology in study and cure of mental disorders in epilepsy; and structural analysis of non-verbal thinking in man. The neuropharmacological analysis of the brain's functional organization in processes of formation and retrieval of memory engrams; role of neuropeptides in synapsomodification; and levels of functioning of transmitter systems and epileptogenesis are also explained.
