Derives a model which predicts data related to generalization and discrimination among stimuli, using data resulting from a reference experiment with 6 naive male White Carneaux pigeons. A 2nd experiment with 3 experienced Ss provided data corresponding to the prediction of step-function results from the model. This steady-state procedure yielded positive, negative, and combination gradients of stimulus control on a wavelength continuum. Results are predicted by computer simulations based on a linear difference equation. The model applies to a set of stimuli that activate common elements; a gaussian weighting function controls the degree of activation of an element by any given stimulus. The model is conceptually similar to, and compatible with, a model of conditioning previously stated by RA Rescorla and AR Wagner (1972).(24 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
