Differential outcome effect in the horse
Article Abstract:
Discrimination performance in horses improved more when discrimination combinations were differentially reinforced by food then when randomly reinforced or when reinforcement was common for correct combinations. This study demonstrates differential outcome, with significant implications for controlling equine behavior in the laboratory and horse sports.

Effects of differing response-force requirements on food-maintained responding in CD-1 mice
Article Abstract:
The study examines the proposition that increases in response are aversive using CD-1 mice trained to press a disk with their snout. The results conclude that increased force requirements are more analogous to intermittent schedules of reinforcement.
