(FI 2) – Reinforcement is delivered for the first response after the 2 minutes have elapsed. Characteristics Tend to produce a slow to moderate rate of responding Typically produces a postreinforcement pause Generally, the larger the fixed interval requirement, the longer the postreinforcement pause...

Rats were implanted with stimulating electrodes aimed at the medial forebrain bundlelateral hypothalamus (MFB-LH) and were trained to lever-press for brain stimulation on a fixed-interval 15-sec schedule of reinforcement. When behavior had stabilized, the animals were tested with graded doses of d...
Increasing time proportions were also found in Experiment 2, which arranged similar conditions, except that reinforcement was provided on a variable-time basis. The time proportions were close to the momentary maximizing prediction in Experiment 2. The results of both experiments can be explained if ...
