Abstract
After responding was maintained on multiple fixed-interval schedules of reinforcement, a cuing procedure was added to one component. Cuing was accomplished by illuminating a lamp just prior to reinforcement availability. This procedure produced positive behavioral contrast. The rate of responding in the cued component decreased, and the rate of responding in the uncued component increased. When the cue was removed, negative behavioral contrast occurred. Rate of responding in the component from which the cue had been removed increased, and rate of responding in the other component decreased. Throughout the experiment, rates of reinforcement in both components were held constant.
