Abstract

Abstract A coincident timing task was practiced by 60 male volunteers randomly assigned to one of the following four treatments: positive social reinforcement; negative social reinforcement; nonreinforcement; and a control group. Subjects received 30 trials with knowledge of results after every trial. The experimenter and three confederates administered the appropriate treatments except for the control group which performed in the presence of the experimenter only. Results showed no significant difference between the four treatments, even though all groups made significant improvements over the 30 trials.
