“…In order to administer the relatively large number of training trials that appear to be required to produce the collapse or dissipation of reward magnitude effects, it is not uncommon to fmd that multiple daily trials have been administered (e.g., Davis, Harper, & Seago, 1975;McCain, Boodee, & Lobb, 1977;McCain, Lobb, & Newberry, 1976). Such trial-administration procedures may well produce a "warm-up" effect, with performance on the initial trial(s) being inferior to that shown on later trials.…”
