We propose a novel method to dissociate incentive motivation from memory and motor processes in...
Discrete-trial training (DTT) relies critically on implementation by trained tutors. We report three experiments carried...
Three experiments investigated temporal generalization in humans. In Experiment 1, a peak shift effect was...
The current study examined the effects of the D2 agonist (quinpirole) and D2 antagonist (eticlopride)...

The present studies investigated the extent to which fruit-machine gamblers held erroneous beliefs, specifically the...
This study investigated the effects of team-skills training on collaborative learning in a university setting....
Despite a vast literature on collaborative learning (CL), there is little research on preparing students...
Weber's law – constancy of the coefficient of variation – is an apparently ubiquitous feature...
Participants were exposed to 3 conditions in a betweengroups design. Participants were told the experiment...
The effects of praise on student on-task behaviour, academic self-concept and numeracy enjoyment were investigated....
The generality of the mathematical principles of reinforcement (MPR) was tested with humans. In Experiment...
Rats' leverpressing was reinforced on variable-ratio (VR) schedules. As ratio values increased, response rates initially...
We attempted to demonstrate that timing performance on a temporal discrimination would be enhanced if...
Seven pigeons were trained to respond on one key during the first half of a...
The behavioral theory of timing assumes that timing is governed by a pacemaker whose pulses...
The amount of food necessary to cause within-session decreases in response rates was investigated by...
Mathematical principles of reinforcement were developed in order to (1) account for the interaction of...
Predictions of P. R. Killeen's (1994) mathematical principles of reinforcement were tested for responding on...
Pigeons discriminated between the 1st and 2nd halves of a trial. Trial duration was varied...
In the behavioral theory of timing, pacemaker rate is determined by overall rate of reinforcement....
In the present experiment, an attempt was made to extend the base of evidence for...
In the behavioral theory of timing, pulses from a hypothetical Poisson pacemaker produce transitions between...
The assumption by the behavioral theory of timing that pacemaker rate is proportional to reinforcer...
What is time? St. Augustine knew: “I know what time is”, he said, “but if...
Aggressive behaviour in dogs has become a major topic of scientific research in Northern Europe...
Animal Behaviour Therapy is an expanding applied area that is rapidly gaining recognition as a...
The literature suggests self-efficacy (SE), outcome expectations (OE), mood and pain are important in physiotherapy...
This pilot study aimed to assess the contribution of self-efficacy (SE) and outcome expectations (OE;...
Three experiments investigated temporal generalisation performance with humans. In Experiment 1 a peak shift effect...
Objectives: This two phase evaluation investigated whether team-skills training can enhance the effectiveness of collaborative...
The aim of the present research was to model the inadvertent social reinforcement processes which...
A key construct in Killeen’s (1994) mechanics is the short-term memory trace. It is asserted...
