Abstract |
Chrysemys picta picta The effect of reduction in amount of reward on runway performance, and the effects of amount and probability of reward in acquisition on resistance to extinction, were studied in five groups of painted turtles trained in widely spaced trials. The results obtained—no depression effect, a direct relation between amount of reward and resistance to extinction, and a reversed PRE—are compared to those of analogous experiments with rats and fish.
