Abstract:Deprivation shifts, using conditions analogous to those which produce strong incentive contrast when reward quantity is changed (extended preshift training, short interval from the last preshift trial to the first postshift trial, large preshift differences in deprivation) resulted in contrast of runway speed and choice behavior, In the first experiment, a downshift of hunger during rats' runway training produced a slow lessening of speed below that of a group trained continually at low hunger. In the second e… Show more
