Negative reinforcement without shock reduction

Negative reinforcement without shock reduction

P N Hineline. J Exp Anal Behav. 1970 Nov.

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.
