Negative reinforcement without shock reduction
Abstract
Stable lever-press responding in rats was reliably produced and maintained by a procedure in which responses could delay shocks without affecting overall shock frequency. Responding was not maintained when the delay-of-shock involved an increase in overall shock frequency.
