“…Six, only responding for food was disrupted as the dogs sickened and half died from maximum leukopenia (no white blood cells) about 15 days after radiation. The visual discrimination and sound-conditioned fear suppression continued without disruption until death ( Jetter, Lindsley, & Wohlwill, 1953).…”

“…For example, in designing an operandum for beagle dogs, I (Jetter, Lindsley, & Wohlwill, 1953;Lindsley, 1957) at first tried a lever very much like a rat lever only larger and at an appropriate height. It promptly produced a chopped rather than a smooth, even VI rate, because the dogs chewed the lever at times rather than pressing it.…”

This article reviews early free-operant conditioning laboratory research and applications. The seldom-mentioned four free-operant freedoms are described for the first time in detail. Most current behavior analysts do not realize that the freedom to form responses and the freedom to speed responses were crucial steps in designing free-operant operanda in the 1950s. These four freedoms were known by the laboratory researchers of the 1950s to the point that, along with operanda design, Sidman (1960) did not feel the need to detail them in his classic, Tactics of Scientific Research. The dimensions of freedom in the operant were so well understood and accepted in the 1950s that most thought it redundant to use the term free operant. These issues are reviewed in some detail for younger behavior analysts who did not have the opportunity of learning them firsthand.

Concurrent Behavior: Are the Interpretations Mutually Exclusive?

The experimental literature is replete with examples of behavior which occur concurrently with a schedule of reinforcement. These concurrent behaviors, often with similar topographies and occurring under like circumstances, may be interpreted as functionally autonomous, collateral, adjunctive, superstitious or mediating behavior. The degree to which the interaction of concurrent and schedule controlled behavior is used in the interpretation of behavior illustrated the importance of distinguishing among these interpretations by experimental procedure. The present paper reviews the characteristics of these interpretations, and discusses the experimental procedures necessary to distinguish among them. The paper concludes that the interpretations are mutually exclusive and refer to distinct behaviors, but that the distinction between any two of the interpretations requires more than one experimental procedure.
