Equivalence classes with requirements for short response latencies

Article Abstract:

Five adult humans were tested for emergent conditional discriminations under rapid-responding contingencies. During four-comparison matching-to-sample baseline training, limited hold contingencies for responding to samples and comparisons were gradually restricted to the shortest duration consistent with at least 95% accuracy and no more than 5% failures to respond.

Experimental analysis of human vocal behavior: applications of speech-recognition technology

Article Abstract:

This study uses speech recognition technology to examine the transfer of conditioned vocal responses to novel stimulus classes. Findings indicate that most subjects require repeated training and testing to achieve a complete transfer of function in vocal behavior.

An olfactory discrimination procedure for mice

Article Abstract:

Behavioral research presented suggests an olfactory discrimination procedure enhances discrimination learning in mice. Measures of learning and memory in different mouse strains add to the literature on the genetic aspects of behavior.
