Abstract
Summary Two pigeons were exposed to a multiple schedule in which key pecking was reinforced in one component and bar pressing was reinforced in another. When bar pressing later was extinguished, key peck rate at least doubled. The results confirm that behavioral contrast occurs in a multiple schedule with different responses in the components. A recent failure by Scull and Westbrook to obtain this result was probably due to a feature of their procedure.
