Preference between variable-ratio and fixed-ratio schedules: local and extended relations.
Although it has repeatedly been demonstrated that pigeons, as well as other species, will often choose a variable schedule of reinforcement over an equivalent (or even richer) fixed schedule, the exact nature of that controlling relation has yet to be fully assessed. In this study pigeons were given repeated choices between concurrently available fixed-ratio and variable-ratio schedules. The fi...
متن کاملPausing under variable-ratio schedules: Interaction of reinforcer magnitude, variable-ratio size, and lowest ratio.
Pigeons pecked a key under two-component multiple variable-ratio schedules that offered 8-s or 2-s access to grain. Postreinforcement pausing and the rates of responding following the pause (run rates) in each component were measured as a function of variable-ratio size and the size of the lowest ratio in the configuration of ratios comprising each schedule. In one group of subjects, variable-r...

متن کاملComparison of fixed-ratio and progressive-ratio schedules of maintenance of stimulant drug-reinforced responding.
The effectiveness of doses of i.v. cocaine and nomifensine in maintaining lever-press responding in rhesus monkeys was evaluated under two schedules, fixed- and progressive-ratio (FR, PR). The doses that maintained maximum rates of responding under the fixed-ratio schedule were 0.32 mg/kg per injection cocaine and 0.10 mg/kg per injection nomifensine. The fixed-ratio rates maintained by this do...
متن کاملVariable-ratio schedules as variable-interval schedules with linear feedback loops.
The mathematical theory of linear systems has been used successfully to describe responding on variable-interval (VI) schedules. In the simplest extension of the theory to the variable-ratio (VR) case, VR schedules are treated as if they were VI schedules with linear feedback loops. The assumption entailed by this approach, namely, that VR and VI-plus-linear-feedback schedules are equivalent, w...
