“…Indeed, several researchers have developed alternative novel methodologies for establishing derived relations, such as stimulus pairing (e.g., Barnes, Smeets, & Leader, 1996;Fields, Doran, & Marroquin, 2009;Fields, Reeve, varelas, Rosen, & Belanich, 1997;Layng & Chase, 2001), a go/no-go procedure (e.g., Cullinan, Barnes-Holmes, & Smeets, 2001;Debert, Matos, & McIlvane, 2007), and simultaneous discrimination techniques (e.g., McIlvane, Kledaras, Callahan, & Dube, 2002;Smeets, Barnes-Holmes, & Cullinan, 2000). one highly novel alternative methodology is the Relational evaluation Procedure (ReP; Cullinan et al, 2001; o'Hora, Barnes-Holmes, Roche, & Smeets, 2004;Stewart, Barnes-Holmes & Roche, 2004; see also Barnes-Holmes, Hayes, Dymond, & o'Hora, 2001, for a detailed outline).…”

“…An alternative method is the stimulus pairing yes/no procedure (Fields, Reeve, Varelas, Rosen, & Belanich, 1997) or the Relational Evaluation procedure (REP) (Cullinan, Barnes-Holmes, & Smeets, 2001). Here, presentation of A1 is followed by one comparison only, but two responses are available, such as the choice between one key or button representing yes (or same) and the other representing no (or different) 4 .…”

“…In both studies the stimulus-pairing yes/no procedure (Fields et al, 1997) or Relational Evaluation Procedure (REP) (Cullinan et al, 2001) is being used as the behavioral paradigm for SE, which should provide useful comparability between the two sets of studies. The studies differ mainly in (a) types of stimuli employed, and (b) the tasks used as controls in subtraction analyses.…”

Ingenious and seemingly powerful technologies have been developed recently that enable the visualization in some detail of events in the brain concomitant upon the ongoing behavioral performance of a human participant. Measurement of such brain events offers at the very least a new set of dependent variables in relation to which the independent variables familiarly manipulated in the operant laboratory may be explored. Two related paradigms in which a start has been made in such research concern the derivation of novel or emergent relations from a baseline set of trained relations, and include the phenomenon of transitive inference (TI), observed in studies of stimulus equivalence (SE) and serial learning (SL) or seriation. This paper reviews some published and forthcoming neuroimaging studies of these and related phenomena, and considers how this line of research both demands and represents a welcome synthesis between types of question and levels of explanation in behavioral science that often have been seen as antithetical.

“…Para o estabelecimento de classes de equivalência, vários procedimentos alternativos ao MTS foram propostos nos últimos anos, tais como o respondenttype procedure (e.g., Leader, Barnes, & Smeets, 1996), yes/no (e.g., Fields, Reeve, Varelas, Rosen, & Belanich, 1997) e o procedimento go/no-go com estímulos compostos (e.g., Debert, Matos, & McIlvane, 2007). A relevância em propor e avaliar outros procedimentos se deve ao fato de que algumas populações, tais como crianças com desenvolvimento atípico e animais não humanos, apresentam dificuldades em estabelecer classes de equivalência pelo procedimento MTS (e.g., Devany, Hayes, & Nelson, 1986;Sidman, 1994).…”

RESUMOAté o momento, todos os experimentos conduzidos com o procedimento go/no-go com estímulos compostos com humanos utilizaram esquemas de reforçamento conjuntivo FR1 e VT 2,5, sendo desconhecidos os efeitos de outros esquemas de reforçamento neste tipo de procedimento. O objetivo deste estudo consistiu em verificar os efeitos de um esquema de reforçamento de intervalo variável (VI) na produção de relações condicionais por meio do procedimento go/no-go com estímulos compostos com humanos. Quatro participantes foram submetidos a uma tarefa no computador, dividida em três fases. Na Fase 1, foram treinadas as relações AB e BC. Respostas emitidas diante dos estímulos compostos A1B1, A2B2, B1C1 e B2C2 eram seguidas de pontos em um esquema de reforçamento VI de 2,5 s. Respostas emitidas na presença dos estímulos compostos A1B2, A2B1, B1C2 e B2C1 não eram seguidas de consequências (i.e., extinção). Após obtenção de desempenhos acurados no treino, a emergência das relações de simetria (BA e CB) foram testadas na Fase 2 e a emergência das relações de transitividade (AC) e equivalência (CA) foram testadas na Fase 3. Todos os quatro participantes demonstraram as relações de simetria e três demonstraram as relações de transitividade e equivalência. Os resultados indicam que é possível produzir relações condicionais emergentes com o esquema VI no procedimento go/no-go com estímulos compostos em humanos, sendo este esquema de reforçamento uma possível alternativa ao esquema conjuntivo até então adotado como padrão neste tipo de procedimento.Palavras-Chave: equivalência de estímulos, procedimento go/no-go, esquemas de reforçamento, humanos ABSTRACT All previous experiments conducted with the go/no-go procedure with compound stimuli in humans used the conjunctive schedule FR1 and VT 2.5 s. The effects of other reinforcement schedules in this kind of procedure were not investigated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a variable interval reinforcement schedule (VI) in the establishment of conditional relations with the go/no-go procedure with compound stimuli in humans. Four participants were exposed to a computer task, divided in three phases. In Phase 1, AB and BC relations were trained. Responses emitted in the presence of compound stimuli A1B1, A2B2, B1C1, and B2C2 were followed by reinforcing consequences (points) in a VI schedule 2.5 s. Responses emitted in the presence of compound stimuli A1B2, A2B1, B1C2, and B2C1 were not followed by programmed consequences (i.e., extinction). After obtaining accurate performances in training, the emergence of symmetry relations (BA and CB) were tested in Phase 2, and the emergence of transitivity and equivalence relations (AC and CA respectively) were tested in Phase 3. All four participants exhibited symmetry relations, and three participants exhibited transitivity and equivalence relations. The results indicate that it is possible to establish emergent conditional relations with a VI schedule in the go/no-go procedure with compound stimuli in humans. Therefore, VI ...
