H - FR 20 → G+ | H - FR 20 → G+ | H - FR 20 → G+ |

Note. V = vertical lines, H = horizontal lines, R = red, G = green, W = white, C = circle, DRL and drl = differential-reinforcement-of-low-rates-of-responding, FR and fr = fixed-ratio, (+) = reinforced comparison. Sample stimuli and sample–response schedules appear to the left of the arrows; reinforced comparison choices appear to the right of the arrows. Counterbalancing of the DRL 3 s and FR 20 sample-response schedules and the nonreinforced comparisons are not shown. Underlining of “drl” and “fr” indicate the sample-response pattern that should emerge assuming bidirectional transfer. Italics indicate what pattern should emerge via adventitious reinforcement or acquired sample equivalence. SID = same comparison alternatives on all trials with identity matching contingences for red and green samples. SODD = same comparison alternatives on all trials with oddity contingencies for red and green samples. DFRN = different comparison alternatives following vertical and horizontal samples than following red and green samples.
