Description
Abstract The effectiveness of a reinforcer in maintaining behavior (its value) changes systematically with successive deliveries of that reinforcer. Some misconceptions have impeded our understanding of these changes. The misconceptions include the idea that the changes never occur or occur only when large reinforcers are used; that they always occur; that they are always bitonic in form; that they have no theoretical implications; and that they are produced by satiation to the reinforcer. A precise characterization of the factors that alter the effectiveness of a reinforcer is essential for the theoretical understanding of operant behavior and for the use of operant techniques in practice.
