Conditioning, Operant - Research News and Information
Monday, September 08, 2008
Definition of 'Conditioning, Operant'Learning situations in which the sequence responses of the subject are instrumental in producing reinforcement. When the correct response occurs, which involves the selection from among a repertoire of responses, the subject is immediately reinforced. Common names: Conditioning, Operant; Instrumental Learning; Learning, Instrumental; Instrumental Learnings; Learnings, Instrumental; Operant Conditioning; Conditionings, Operant; Operant Conditionings |
Sep 2008
Sucrose intake has been suggested to alter the expression of morphine-induced conditioned place preference (CPP). To date, the potential effects of sucrose intake on the extinction and drug-induced reinstatement of CPP... Read more...

Sep 2008
This study used heroin self-administration to investigate incubation of goal-directed heroin-seeking behavior following abstinence. Male Sprague-Dawley rats self-administered heroin on a fixed ratio 10 (FR10) schedule... Read more...
Sep 2008
Rats learn to prefer a flavor mixed into a fructose-saccharin solution over a different flavor mixed into a saccharin-only solution which is considered to be a form of flavor-flavor conditioning. Fructose-conditioned... Read more...
