Nevin, John A.; Davison, Michael; Shahan, Timothy A. – Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2005
A model of conditional discrimination performance (Davison & Nevin, 1999) is combined with the notion that unmeasured attending to the sample and comparison stimuli, in the steady state and during disruption, depends on reinforcement in the same way as predicted for overt free-operant responding by behavioral momentum theory (Nevin & Grace, 2000).…
