Lever Pressing

3 rhesus monkeys were given various concentrations of sucrose for lever pressing on a variable interval schedule of reinforcement. 7 sucrose concentrations were studied at 2 levels of food deprivation. The response rates accelerated rapidly with increasing concentrations, and then declined after reaching a maximum, generally between 15 and 30% sucrose concentration. The decline was attributed to a satiation effect. The higher level of food deprivation tended to increase the response rate at all but the extreme high and low concentrations.

Four groups of 6 pigeons, maintained at 100, 90, 80, and 70% of their ad libitum feeding weight, showed directly proportional weight-dependent depressant effects on fixed ratio key pecking following d-amphetamine treatment.
