Behav Processes . 2014 Jun; 45(1-3):115-27. PMID: 24897531
To investigate the role of timing processes in choice, we used a new procedure that provided simultaneous measures of ongoing choice and timing behavior. Pigeons responded in a peak procedure...

Nevin J, Randolph , Holland S, McLean A
J Exp Anal Behav . 2001 Aug; 76(1):43-74. PMID: 11516115
Two experiments asked whether resistance to change depended on variable-ratio as opposed to variable-interval contingencies of reinforcement and the different response rates they establish. In Experiment 1, pigeons were trained...

Behav Brain Sci . 2001 Apr; 23(1):73-90; discussion 90-130. PMID: 11303339
In the metaphor of behavioral momentum, the rate of a free operant in the presence of a discriminative stimulus is analogous to the velocity of a moving body, and resistance...

Grace R, Nevin J
J Exp Anal Behav . 2000 Oct; 74(2):165-88. PMID: 11029021
Two experiments explored preference and resistance to change in concurrent chains in which the terminal links were variable-interval schedules that ended either after a single reinforcer had been delivered (variable...

Nevin J, Grace R
J Exp Anal Behav . 2000 Aug; 74(1):79-100. PMID: 10966097
Previous research on preference between variable-interval terminal links in concurrent chains has most often used variable-duration terminal links ending with a single reinforcer. By contrast, most research on resistance to...

J Exp Psychol Anim Behav Process . 1999 May; 25(2):256-68. PMID: 10331924
Eight pigeons were trained on multiple schedules of reinforcement where pairs of components alternated in blocks on different keys to define 2 local contexts. On 1 key, components arranged 160...

J Gerontol B Psychol Sci Soc Sci . 1999 Mar; 54(2):P125-34. PMID: 10097775
We investigated the hypothesis that age differences in speech discrimination would be reduced by enhancing the distinctiveness of the speech processing event in terms of both the context of encoding...
