Table 3.

Baseline successive matching contingencies (first three columns) and nonreinforced probe-test trials (last column) in Experiment 2 for the former DODD pigeons from Experiment 1.

Note. R = red, G = green, W = white, B = blue, T = triangle, H = horizontal, FI = fixed interval schedule, EXT = nonreinforced, + = reinforced. The first and second center-key stimuli in a trial sequence (sample and comparison, respectively) are shown to the left and to the right of the arrows, respectively.

(√)

indicates the probe trials for which higher comparison-response rates are predicted (i.e., antisymmetry).
