Figure 5

Delay-of-reinforcement gradients calculated from all sessions testing FI < 300s and the last 21 sessions testing FI 300 and pooled over eight SHR and eight WKY rats. The influence of a reinforcer is measured as the probability that a response at a given remove from the reinforcer would reappear somewhere in the next interval. For these data, the curves start equally high for SHR and WKY (c + b equals 0.617 and 0.647, respectively) while rate of decrease is faster for SHR (λ = 0.63 s-1) than WKY (λ = 0.38 s-1).
