Rats were submitted to one session (20 trials) in which
partial reinforcement was introduced (50%
partial reinforcement schedule).
Separation of time-based and trial-based accounts of the
partial reinforcement extinction effect.
For example, it is unclear if conditioning occurs more readily to true or deceptive statements or whether continuous or
partial reinforcement is more effective in this context.
Use of
partial reinforcement after a priming phase, during which the drug is repeatedly paired with sleep, taps into the phenomenon of conditioning, lead author Michael Perlis, Ph.D., director of the behavioral sleep medicine program, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, explained at the annual meeting of the Associated Professional Sleep Societies.
This is the case with the context-switch effect after
partial reinforcement reported by Abad, Ramos-Alvarez, and Rosas (2009).
In our opinion, the psychological principles of plan continuation bias and
partial reinforcement, when combined with ability to shoot the approach when weather is reported below minimums and only requires the pilot to make the decision to abandon the approach near the very end, at the MDA or DA/DH, is a recipe for getting dead.
Positive and negative
partial reinforcement extinction effects carried through continuous reinforcement, changed motivation, and changed response.
Whitin-subject
partial reinforcement extinction in autoshaping.
Variability of response location during regular and
partial reinforcement. Psychological Reports, 23, 1023-1031.
In an associative learning preparation, the participants were given
partial reinforcement (PRF) with two different cues.
This is analogous to the effects of
partial reinforcement training on instrumental SNC (e.g., Ison, Glass, & Daly, 1969).
The results seem inconsistent with a prediction based on the
partial reinforcement extinction effect (PREE).
