Fluency and controlled-operant training methods
… compared the effectiveness three computerized training methods with respect to behavioral outcomes correlated with fluency. Subjects were trained to translate binary numbers into decimal numbers. Responses were made orally with the use of voice recognition software. One training method …

Operant training of originality in hospitalized adult mental patients
… area of behavioral originality. In the study operant techniques were used to train originality in hospitalized mentally ill or mentally retarded subjects (Ss). Originality of behavior was defined in terms of the observable behavior of the Ss in the research setting. Original responses were …

Ethanol priming and its effects on consumption and accumbal plasticity
… ethanol (CIE) exposure and sustained operant responding. To our knowledge, however, LTD induction has not been extensively studied in volitional self-administration. Prior to operant training, pre-exposure of ethanol, or ethanol priming, is necessary to develop the association of the …

Experience dependent coding of intonations by offsets in mouse auditory cortex
… in ways that are distinct from laboratory operant training paradigms, emphasizing the importance of studying learning in social settings. Our work utilizes a natural paradigm in which mouse mothers learn the behavioral significance of pup ultrasonic vocalizations during maternal experience …

Influence of Mouse Motor Cortex on Vocal Musculature
… developed a suite of tools to train mice in an operant vocal task. To detect and classify USVs in real-time, we developed a software called Analysis of Mouse Vocal Communication (AMVOC). We combined AMVOC with other open-source hardware and software to design an operant training paradigm to that …

A Comparison of Chimpanzee (Pan Troglodytes) Responses to Caregiver Use of Positive Reinforcement Training (PRT) and Species-Specific Behaviors (SSB)
… compared the effects of positive reinforcement training (PRT) and unstructured interactions (UI) on chimpanzee (<em>Pan troglodytes</em>) behavior. In the PRT condition, a caregiver interacted with a chimpanzee to condition behaviors for 10 min. In the UI condition, a caregiver interacted …
