Title

Performance to varied reward following continuous reward training in the runway

Abstract

Depressed runway performance of rats to varied large and small reward following consistent high-incentive training was found. Ss shifted to varied reward displayed a depression effect following both large- and small-reward trials, a finding particularly nonsupportive of Capaldi’s stimulus aftereffect theory and supportive of Amsel’s frustration theory. © 1973, The Psychonomic Society, Inc..
