Abstract

Two experiments were performed to investigate transfer of persistence across different situations and response topographies. Experiment I demonstrated that FR 100 barpress training increased resistance to runway extinction as compared with a control. In Experiment II, resistance to extinction in the runway was systematically and positively related to terminal ratio requirements of prior barpress training. © 1976 Psychonomic Society, Inc.
