Abstract

Ten rats were reinforced on a DRL 15-sec schedule of food reinforcement. The operandum and associated laboratory computer equipment permitted the measurement of peak force and interresponse time (IRT) for individual responses. Terminal performance on the DRL schedule was characterized by an inverse relationship between peak force and IRT such that short IRTs were accompanied by relatively high peak force, whereas generally lower peak forces were emitted after IRTs of 10 sec or longer.
