Self control
Fichas del conjunto (12)
- 1Concurrent reinforcement schedulestwo or more schedules simultaneously availble on independent reinforcement schedules (responding on ones does not effect the other)
- 2Examples of self-controlStudying, sticking to a diet/exersize plan, giving up smoking, finishing planned projects, Saving money
- 3What do self-control situations have in common?A choice between a smaller but more immediate reinforcer, and a larger but delayed reinforcer
- 4Impulsive choiceChoosing the smaller more immediate reinforcer
- 5Self controlled choiceChoising the larger more delayed reinforcer
- 6Why do we experience self-control experiences?Because one alternative is more valuable based on amount, the other is more valuable based on delay
- 7Experimental analogue of self-controlA left key and a right key presented simultaneously. Left key has a reinforcement delay of 3 seconds then availability of 1 second of food. The right key has a delay of 10 seconds then availability of 3 seconds of food.
- 8Experimental analogue for humans?The money over delay thing
- 9How do we investigate the effect of delay experimentally? "How much value does a reinforcer lose if it is delayed by a given amount?Titrating amount procedures. Present two options which are different and then make the one not chosen more valuable in each trial until the subject choses it.
- 10The point in which a subject changes their preference in a titrating amount procedure?The subject's indifference point.
- 11Hyperbolic discounting equationValue = Amount/1+kDelay
k equals the constant. The higher the k the quicker the reinforcer loses value, more likely to select smaller sooner. Low k, reinforcer loses value slower, more likely to choose larger later - 12Amount effect in humansLarger amounts, $100 < $10,000,000, have smaller k, therefore, lose value slower (are discounted more slowely)
