Effects of a Meaningful, a Discriminative, and a Meaningless Stimulus on Equivalence Class Formation
Fields, Lanny; Arntzen, Erik; Nartey, Richard; Eilifsen, Christoffer – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2012
Thirty college students attempted to form three 3-node 5-member equivalence classes under the simultaneous protocol. After concurrent training of AB, BC, CD, and DE relations, all probes used to assess the emergence of symmetrical, transitive, and equivalence relations were presented for two test blocks. When the A-E stimuli were all abstract…

Stimulus overselectivity occurs when only one of potentially many aspects of the environment controls behavior. Adult participants were trained and tested on a trial-and-error discrimination learning task while engaging in a concurrent load task, and overselectivity emerged. When responding to the overselected stimulus was reduced by reinforcing a…

Fields, Lanny; Garruto, Michelle – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2009
A linked perceptual class consists of two distinct perceptual classes, A' and B', the members of which have become related to each other. For example, a linked perceptual class might be composed of many pictures of a woman (one perceptual class) and the sounds of that woman's voice (the other perceptual class). In this case, any sound of the…
