详细研究了鸽子在并行可变间隔时间表上的表现的现存数据。最小二乘法线相关的相对啄食和相应的相对钢筋的时间,获得了四项研究。时间和啄次数的研究组间斜率以及来自个体研究的7个研究组内斜率中的5个小于1.00。这表明鸽子对更丰富的强化时间表的反应比匹配预测的要少。对于啄,点分布的非参数检验也支持这种匹配不足的概念(更丰富的强化时间表)。此外,以均方误差为标准,三次曲线拟合的啄食比例数据比任何直线或其他多项式。这表明配筋率与配筋率的关系可能是非线性的。
The extant data for pigeons' performance on concurrent variable-interval schedules were examined in detail. Least-squares lines relating relative pecks and time to the corresponding relative reinforcements were obtained for four studies. The between-study group slopes for time and pecks and five of seven within-study group slopes from individual studies were less than 1.00. This suggested the generality that pigeons respond less to the richer reinforcement schedule than predicted by matching. For pecks, a nonparametric test for distribution of points also supported this concept of undermatching (to the richer reinforcement schedule). In addition, using mean squared error as the criterion, a cubic curve fit the peck proportion data better than any line or other polynomial. This indicates that the relation between peck and reinforcement proportions may be nonlinear.
