EFFECTS OF STIMULUS COMPLEXITY, SUBJECT AGE, AND STIMULUS CODING ON SELECTIVE STIMULUS CONTROL
<p>Selective stimulus control refers to the functional relationships that are developed between the various stimulus elements of a discriminative stimulus and the subject's response. A multi-element conditional discrimination problem is an effective means of studying these relationships. In the …

Iconic Memory and Aging: Effects of Stimulus Duration, Stimulus Contrast, and Inter-Stimulus Interval
… whole and partial report trials with stimulus durations of 150 ms; a second group of 18 young adults was tested with stimulus durations of 30 ms. Stimuli were presented at two levels of contrast (98 and 44 percent) and the partial report trials included four cue-delay conditions (0, …

On the Relation between Stimulus Equivalence and Extension of Stimulus Function
… this study was to examine the relation between stimulus equivalence (briefly, networks of relations among stimuli) and the extension of stimulus function (briefly, spread of effect across network) more closely than has been possible before. The traditional view of this relation suggests that …

Gabapentin Discriminative Stimulus Effects
… gabapentin when established as a discriminative stimulus as well as GABA<sub>A</sub> and NMDA ligands. Ten female Sprague-Dawley rats were trained on a drug discrimination paradigm using a 300.0 mg/kg gabapentin training dose as a discriminative stimulus. Gabapentin was successfully established …

Discriminative Stimulus Effects of Gabapentin
… study sought to evaluate the discriminative stimulus effects of the anticonvulsant gabapentin in rats trained to discriminate 30.0 mg/kg gabapentin from vehicle in a two-lever drug discrimination task. All of the ten rats tested were able to establish gabapentin as an interoceptive cue. …

The Effects of Type of Stimulus Pretraining and Stimulus Complexity on Encoding Processes of Normals and Retardates.
… this study was to study the effects of type of stimulus pretraining and stimulus complexity on encoding processes of normals and retardates using a serial probe task. A review of the literature indicated that retardates are deficient in what Bower refers to as "coding as elaboration." Thirty …

Conjugate Reinforcement: The Effects of Stimulus Clarity
… as a function of the change in the clarity of a stimulus when responding falls below a certain rate. A six component MULT schedule was used. Each component was associated with self-selected visual displays that diminished in clarity at different rates when responding fell below a pre-determined …

Discriminative Stimulus Effects of Putative Antipsychotic Drugs
… attempted to further explore the discriminative stimulus properties of antipsychotic drugs, by establishing the typical antipsychotic drug chlorpromazine, and the atypical antipsychotic drug clozapine as discriminative stimulus in two different groups of rats. The rats trained to discriminate …

Stimulus-Section Coupling in Endocrine Cell Models

Reaction to Stimulus Figures in Chimpanzee Drawings
… sheets of paper that were either blank or had a stimulus. The stimulus was located in the center or offset from the center. These drawings were scanned and digitized. Analysis tested whether chimpanzee mark placement was contingent on the location of stimulus figures. Centroid locations …

Fiscal stimulus through state and local governments
State and local governments in the United States make up more than half of total government consumption and investment and almost 90 percent of total government employment. Despite these facts, the debates surrounding fiscal policy during business cycles have usually been limited to the actions of …

Stimulus Matters: Effects of Familiarity versus Novelty
The ability to suppress a prepotent response is a crucial component of cognition that begins to develop during infancy and peeks during preschool. As part of understanding how one develops inhibitory control, learning about what conditions may help or hurt task performance is of great interest. The …
