Maternal nutrition and four-alternative choice

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted using four-choice analog to find the reliable differences as a function of maternal nutrition in the speed of adaptation to changes in the locations of differing reinforcer rates. The generalized matching relation failed to describe the allocation of responses among alternatives, but the contingency-discriminability model provided a precise description of performance.

A sensitive, reliable inexpensive touch detector

Article Abstract:

Research laboratories require a sensitive, reliable, inexpensive touch detector for use with rats to test the reinforcement of inhibition but such kind of detectors are not yet designed. However, the combination of operational amplifier chips with the Darlington amplifier chip provides one of the best touch detectors.
