Abstract
Groups of S and T received 201 trials on a recursive RNN schedule of reinforcement. Group T, in which each S received its first daily trial before the first S received its second trial, etc., ran fast on R and slow on N trials. Group S, in which each S received all of its daily trials, before the second S received its first trial, ran fast, slow, fast on R, N1, and N2 trials, respectively.
