Book A Study of the Influence of Secondary Reinforcement Upon Generalization Decrement

Download or read book A Study of the Influence of Secondary Reinforcement Upon Generalization Decrement written by Robert E. Pawlicki and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is felt that while secondary reinforcement appears similar to primary reinforcement, its similarities should be verified by empirical investigation. The present experiment was concerned with the influence of secondary reinforcement upon generalization decrement. The usual definition of generalization decrement that is found may be represented by that of Kimple and Garmezy: "The loss of response strength which occurs when a response is elicited by a stimulus other than the original stimulus." Such definitions of the construct are inadequate on two grounds. First, the implication is made that generalization decrement is peculiar to classical conditioning in spite of the fact that generalization decrement has been demonstrated in studies using operant conditioning procedures by their focusing on the conditioned stimulus. Second, their definition does not reflect the actual operations employed in those studies which have demonstrated generalization decrement. Those studies dealing specifically with generalization decrement have investigated the effects of differences between intertrial invervals between acquisition and extinction on resistance to extinction. In this study, also, generalization decrement was defined as a decrease in the resistance to extinction attributable to differences in intertrial intervals between acquisition and extinction trials. Twenty albino rats were given primary reinforcement and 20 albino rats were given primary plus secondary reinforcement. This was accomplished by conditioning the primary reinforcement group with a food pellet and conditioning the primary plus secondary reinforcement group with a light and buzzer in addition to the food pellet. The primary reinforcement group were then divided into subgroups. Half of the subjects in each group were given similar intertrial intervals between conditioning and extinction while the other half were given dissimilar intertrial intervals between conditioning and extinction. The difference between these latter two groups as measured by resistance to extinction is the operational definition of generalization decrement. It was felt that the group receiving primary plus secondary reinforcement should result in more generalization decrement than the group receiving only primary reinforcement. The data in part s upport this hypothesis.
