Abstract

Shimp (1983) found in five pigeons “double dissociation” between the distribution of pairs of long and short reinforced interresponse times and “self-reports,” obtained by symbolic matching to sample, concerning these interresponse times. This result can be explained by assuming that the birds used a fixed temporal interval as matching criterion, independently of which pattern of interresponse times was reinforced.
