Operant conditioning of the visual smooth pursuit in young infants.
Smooth pursuit is a complex behaviour which is not considered as totally functional at birth. The lack of maturation of the visuo-motor systems is generally invoked to explain this phenomenon. However, if this oculomotor response is an operant behaviour, an alternate explanation may be found in the absence of previous confrontation with the environmental contingencies. A first group of young in...
متن کاملOperant conditioning of head-waving in Aplysia. III. Cellular analysis of possible reinforcement pathways.
Operant conditioning of the head-waving response in Aplysia, as well as conditioning of the electrical activity of identified neck muscles, can be induced readily when bright light is used as aversive reinforcement (Cook and Carew, 1986, 1989b). A cellular analysis of this type of operant conditioning requires an understanding of the neural circuitry that underlies the reinforcement pathways in...
متن کاملQuantum Probability in Operant Conditioning - Behavioral Uncertainty in Reinforcement Learning
An implicit assumption in the study of operant conditioning and reinforcement learning is that behavior is stochastic, in that it depends on the probability that an outcome follows a response and on how the presence or absence of the output affects the frequency of the response. In this paper we argue that classical probability is not the right tool to represent uncertainty operant conditioning...
متن کاملOperant conditioning of head-waving in Aplysia. I. Identified muscles involved in the operant response.
A basic goal in the neurosciences is to understand the cellular mechanisms underlying associative learning. The 2 major forms of associative learning are classical conditioning and operant conditioning. In recent years considerable progress has been made towards a cellular analysis of classical conditioning in a number of different preparations. In contrast, the cellular mechanisms underlying o...
متن کاملOperant Conditioning
O Definition Primarily a feature of certain sentences, e.g., of many ascriptions of propositional attitudes. The truth of such ascriptions does not systematically depend on the truth or falsity of the proposition involved. Consider the following two belief-ascriptions: “Mary believes that 1 + 1 = 2” and “Mary believes that 2756 + 488 = 3244.” Even though both propositions (“1 + 1 = 2” and “2756...
