Maintaining behavior in a child with autism using a previously neutral stimulus, a remote control tactile stimulus, as the consequence
… was neutral. In Phase 2, alternating pairing and testing conditions were run. During testing the effects of pairing were evaluated by the effectiveness of the RCT in maintaining a response in the absence of a previously available reinforcer (extinction test) and in increasing a new response over a …

Generalized identity matching in the pigeon: Effects of extended observing- and choice-response requirements.
… basis of identity was assessed by presenting, in extinction, test trials comprising novel stimuli serving as the sample (and matching comparison) or as the nonmatching comparison. The results from Experiment 1 suggested intermediate or little to no transfer on the basis of identity. Experiment 2 …

The effects of caffeine on learning and locomotor behavior in the honey bee (Apis mellifera)
… foraging in their natural environment and (2) test for effects of caffeine on motor activity. I tested bees using a new adaptation of a place learning feeding table paradigm in which forager bees treated topically on the abdomen with 100 mM caffeine were trained to distinguish two feeding …

The Role of Glutamate in the Medial Prefrontal Cortex in the Acquistion and Expression of Conditioned Approach
… a session with no CS or US and a CS-only (extinction) test session on the following day. For the acquisition of conditioned approach, NMDA receptors were blocked with AP5 prior to each of the three conditioning sessions. For expression, AMPA receptors were blocked with CNQX prior to the …

On the Analysis of Mouse Behavior
… for mechanistic studies and preclinical drug testing. Methodological limitations contribute to narrow investigations, which may overlook the interplay between distinct but related behaviors, like affective behaviors and executive function (EF). To prevent such oversight, researchers can …
