Punishment By SD Associated With Fixed‐Ratio Reinforcement, Donald M. Thompson

Faculty Publications

Two pigeons were trained with positive reinforcement on a multiple FR VI 2 schedule. The VI 2 component was held constant while the FR component was changed from ratios of 1 to 300. After responding had stabilized at each FR value, VI responses produced briefly either the fixed‐ratio SD or a stimulus uncorrected with either schedule component. Compared to the effects of the uncorrected stimulus change, the fixed‐ratio SD produced a decrease in VI responding proportional to the size of the FR requirement. It is concluded that stimuli associated with high FR schedules served as punishment for the ongoing behavior. …

Selected Limitations On The Organization Of Treatment In A "Modern" Prison, Raymond Paul Leblanc

LSU Historical Dissertations and Theses

In this study a descriptive analysis Is made of selected limitations on the organization of treatment at Louisiana State Penitentiary within the past approximate decade. Since 1t 1s concerned with a '*modern prison, the study Is applicable to most contemporary American prisons undergoing any phase of the transition from objectives of custody and production to that of treatment orientation. The study presents (1) a brief historical progression of the '*old system In Louisiana, making a cursory analysis of the Ideology, structure, and method of operation of that penal structure at Angola prior to the 1951-52 prison 'riot'} (2) a survey …

Escape From SD Associated With Fixed‐Ratio Reinforcement, Donald M. Thompson

Faculty Publications

Throughout ascending and descending fixed‐ratio (FR) sequences, rats were allowed to terminate the FR stimulus control by pressing a time‐out (TO) lever. To minimize chance or accidental responses on this second lever, three presses were required to produce the 30‐sec SΔ period. As FR performance became more “strained,” there was an increased predisposition to escape from the time‐in stimulus complex. The generality of this finding was extended by obtaining recoverability (independent of the direction of stimulus change) of the FR‐TO function in the descending series. Typically, escapes were produced only during the post‐reinforcement pause; however, under a mixed FR FR …
