Popis: The sucrose preferences of two prosimian primate species, slow loris and greater galago, were determined under aperiodic reinforcement of a free operant. Stimuli were solutions of the following concentrations: 5%, 10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%. Solutions of intermediate concentration were preferred, and thus the function relating barpresses to concentrations was nonmonotonic.
