Contiguity and conditioned reinforcement in probabilistic choice.
In a baseline condition, pigeons chose between an alternative that always provided food following a 30-s delay (100% reinforcement) and an alternative that provided food half of the time and blackout half of the time following 30-s delays (50% reinforcement). The different outcomes were signaled by different-colored keylights. On average, each alternative was chosen approximately equally often,...
متن کاملFood reinforcement, energy intake, and macronutrient choice.
BACKGROUND Food is a powerful reinforcer that motivates people to eat. The relative reinforcing value of food (RRV(food)) is associated with obesity and energy intake and interacts with impulsivity to predict energy intake. OBJECTIVE How RRV(food) is related to macronutrient choice in ad libitum eating tasks in humans has not been studied; however, animal research suggests that sugar or simpl...
متن کاملReinforcement versus balance response in sequential choice
Psychologists often explore the impact of one act on a subsequent related act. With an eye to the marketing literature, this paper explores two properties of sequential choices that involve the resolution of competing goals. Reinforcement occurs when the goals driving the first choice are made stronger by that choice and result in a congruent subsequent choice. Balance occurs when the first cho...
متن کاملsynthesis of aluminum triacrylate as reactive filler in epdm reinforcement
the organo-metal salt of aluminum triacrylate (alta) with a general formula of (ch2=chcoo)3al was synthesized as a reactive fller for elastomers through a two-step synthetic procedure. fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (ftir), dsc and dta were employed for alta analysis and to study its cure characteristics. in this research, two composites based on ethylene propylene diene monomer...
متن کاملHeart rate and reinforcement sensitivity in ADHD.
BACKGROUND Both theoretical and clinical accounts of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) implicate a dysfunctional reinforcement system. This study investigated heart rate parameters in response to feedback associated with reward and response cost in ADHD children and controls aged 8 to 12. METHODS Heart rate responses (HRRs) following feedback and heart rate variability (HRV) in ...
