Abstract
Four white rats were conditioned to respond on a free-operant or Sidman avoidance schedule. After a stable level of responding had been reached, one of two extinction procedures was instated. The S received either no shock or the same number and pattern of shocks as in his last avoidance session. Response rates were very much higher under the latter extinction procedure, although they approached zero with continued extinction sessions with response-independent shocks.
