Document Summary
Simulus control: how much control a simulus has over a behaviour. Delay has no impact on the propriocepive (internal) reinforcement (of turning right) rg-sg mechanism (hull) Food (s* = sg) rg rg= reacions in goal box. Simuli in the start box and delay box come to elicit rg: rg=fracional anicipatory goal responses, energize behaviour. 3. rg sg sg guide behaviour sg can also serve as condiioned reinforcers because of their coniguous associaion with sg (ex. We can use internal sensory experiences that are reinforced to guide us towards a goal. When propriocepive (internal), as well as exterocepive (external), condiioned reinforcers are eliminated, even a brief delay in the presentaion of the reinforcer prevents learning. When no delay the mice learn the y maze, when kept in a delay box before receiving their reinforcement. Behaviour that has been reinforced in the presence of one simulus is controlled by the presence/absence of that simulus.
