Abstract:Subjects made binary choices of events which were generated by a time-varying process which varied in a random sequence of step changes. Sizes of step change and probability levels of the generators were studied. Subjects who knew the onset of a step change responded more rapidly and had a more optimal asymptotic choice frequency than subjects who did not. Matching behavior was not observed for most conditions.
