A procedure for generating differential "sample" responding without different exteroceptive stimuli
Article Abstract:
An experiment with pigeons is described that test the hypothesis that responses and stimuli can join equivalence classes. The "unsignaled response" procedure with pigeon is useful for assessing whether differential response can be members of acquired equivalence classes.

Sample-duration effects on pigeons' delayed matching as a function of predictability of duration
Article Abstract:
Researchers examine pigeons' responses to constant exposure to a conditioned stimulus. The research attempts to find a relationship between duration effects, delayed matching accuracy, and predictability.
