“…Researchers have studied the value of choice by measuring preference between conditions that allow choice‐making opportunities to conditions that do not. Humans (e.g., Ackerlund Brandt, Dozier, Foster Juanico, Laudont, & Mick, ; Fisher, Thompson, Piazza, Crosland, & Gotjen, ; Hori & Shimazaki, ; Karsina, Thompson, & Rodriguez, ; Karsina, Thompson, Rodriguez, & Vanselow, ; Rost, Hemmes, & Alvero, ; Schmidt, Hanley, & Layer, ; Suzuki, , ; Tiger, Hanley, & Hernandez, ) and nonhumans (e.g., Catania, ; Catania & Sagvolden, ; Cerutti & Catania, ; Suzuki, ; Voss & Homzie, ) often prefer situations that permit selection among multiple stimuli when the alternative is a forced‐ or restricted‐choice arrangement. From a behavior analytic perspective, it would be unsurprising if subjects preferred making choices because they resulted in a larger magnitude of reinforcement, for example.…”
