Key-peck probability and topography in a concurrent variable-interval variable-interval schedule with food and water reinforcers.
The relation between variables that modulate the probability and the topography of key pecks was examined using a concurrent variable-interval variable-interval schedule with food and water reinforcers. Measures of response probability (response rates, time allocation) and topography (peck duration, gape amplitude) were obtained in 5 water- and food-deprived pigeons. Key color signaled reinforc...
متن کاملA model for residence time in concurrent variable interval performance.
A component-functions model of choice behavior is proposed for performance on interdependent concurrent variable-interval (VI) variable-interval schedules based on the product of two component functions, one that enhances behavior and one that reduces behavior. The model is the solution to the symmetrical pair of differential equations describing behavioral changes with respect to two categorie...
متن کاملComputing tolerance interval for binomial random variable
Tolerance interval is a random interval that contains a proportion of the population with a determined confidence level and is applied in many application fields such as reliability and quality control. In this educational paper, we investigate different methods for computing tolerance interval for the binomial random variable using the package Tolerance in statistical software R.
متن کاملPhotographing a Time Interval
A method of measuring time intervals by a single observer proposed by Crowell[3] is extended to the more general case when the events separated by the time interval take place at two points characterized by the same y=y' space coordinates. We show that time dilation and time contraction can take place or even an inversion in the time succession can be detected.
متن کاملIs matching compatible with reinforcement maximization on concurrent variable interval variable ratio?
Four pigeons on concurrent variable interval, variable ratio approximated the matching relationship with biases toward the variable interval when time spent responding was the measure of behavior and toward the variable ratio when frequency of pecking was the measure of behavior. The local rates of responding were consistently higher on the variable ratio, even when there was overall preference...
