According to scalar expectancy theory (SET), instrumental performance is determined by the ratio of the time between reinforcements in the trial (T T) to the overall time between reinforcements (T O). Groups for which theT O|T T ratio is the same should perform similarly. According to the sequential-memory view, the memory of nonreward becomes a signal for reward, and thereby promotes strong responding, when that memory is retrieved on a reward trial. In each of three runway investigations employing rats in a runway, two groups were compared that had the sameT O |T T ratio but that differed in the tendency to retrieve the memory of nonreward on a rewarded trial. In each investigation faster running on critical nonrewarded trials was associated with the group having the stronger tendency to retrieve the memory of nonreward on a rewarded trial. These findings are consistent with the predictions of the sequential-memory view, as well as with certain earlier findings, but are inconsistent with SET. It was indicated that the groups compared here were matched along a considerable number of dimensions—an unprecedented number for a varied reward investigation. 相似文献

Cell-free protein synthesis (CFPS) has emerged as a practical method for producing a broad variety of proteins. In addition, the direct accessibility to the reaction environment makes CFPS particularly suitable as a learning vehicle for fundamental biological concepts. Here, we describe its implementation as a teaching tool for a high school laboratory course. Ninety students in a biotechnology class used CFPS to study the effects of the concentrations of amino acids, cell extract, DNA, and the energy source on accumulation of active super-folder green fluorescent protein. Students estimated product concentrations simply by comparing solution colors to a printed green color gradient. This simple and inexpensive method allows for immediate measurements, and 26 of the 30 groups observed measurable product concentrations within 60 min. These student-generated data were then discussed to illustrate concepts of data analysis such as outliers and standard deviation. We also combined the laboratory experience with a visit to a university campus that included a laboratory tour and a college-style lecture. Our overall objective was to excite the students about the scientific enterprise and to instill a sense of personal relevance and attainability so that these students could realistically consider technical careers. 相似文献
