Position Discrimination

The effects of deprivation level, goal-related cues, and delay of reinforcement on the extinction of a position discrimination response were observed. Deprivation level and cues did not differentially affect rate of extinction or the number of perseveration responses. Delay of reinforcement resulted in a lower level of performance at the end of acquisition and during extinction, and for immediate reinforcement Ss, the rate of decline during extinction was faster although they showed greater initial perseveration.

Group 2

3 groups of 10 rats were trained for 6 trials per day for 34 days on one of the following reward schedules: 2 pellets on odd trials and 4 pellets on even trials (Group 2–4), 2 pellets on odd trials and 8 pellets on even trials (Group 2–8), and 2 pellets on odd trials and 16 pellets on even trials (Group 2–16). Following acquisition, extinction training was given at 6 trials per day for 6 days. In acquisition, the 2–16 group learned to run fast on the even trials and slow on the odd trials (patterned running). In extinction, Groups 2–4 and 2–16 ran similarly but both ran significantly more slowly than the 2–8 group. These results were interpreted as supporting the hypothesis that the increased resistance to extinction usually provided by large variation in reward depends upon the absence of patterned running in acquisition.
