Resurgence of response sequences during extinction in rats shows a primary effect

Article Abstract:

The rats were trained to emit a series of different, three-response sequences after which, two extinction tests were administered. Resurgence effects during extinction were observed and these resurgence effects followed an orderly pattern which involved a primary effect.

The effect of signaled reinforcement on rats' fixed-interval responding

Article Abstract:

The response rate of presenting a brief stimulus while delivering food at regular intervals schedules on rats is examined through four experiments. The results show that reinforcement signal are influenced by a variety of factors.

Rats' performance on variable-interval schedules with a linear feedback loop between response rate and reinforcement rate

Article Abstract:

The authors discovered no evidence that rats showed sensitivity to feedback relating reinforcement rate to response rate on a positive schedule. Three experiments were designed to test this hypothesis.
