| Popis: | The present experiment investigated acquisition, maintenance, and extinction of a discrete trial instrumental avoidance response in young children. Interruption of recorded music served as the aversive event. High interest value (HIV) and low interest value (LIV) recordings and two conditioning procedures were investigated. Escape responses reinstated the recorded material for one group (AE) but not for a second group (AO). Acquisition performance of HIV Ss was significantly superior to that of LIV Ss in terms of the number of Ss meeting criterion and the number of avoidance responses. Extinction performance was not related to the independent variables employed. |
