A differential outcomes effect using biologically neutral outcomes in delayed matching-to-sample with pigeons
Article Abstract:
Experiments with pigeons have shown a differential outcomes effect can happen when one outcome is a biologically neutral light and the other is the absence of that light. A similar response results when two biologically neutral outcomes of similar properties are used.
