Effect of reinforcement duration on fixed-interval responding

J E Staddon. J Exp Anal Behav. 1970 Jan.

Abstract

Five different reinforcement durations occurred randomly within each session on fixed interval 60-sec. Postreinforcement pause was directly related (and "running" rate inversely related) to the duration of reinforcement initiating each fixed interval.
