In the beginning, there was the rat.
I’m a rat

Skinner saw that the rat had no box.

If you give a behaviorist a rat, a lever, and a reinforcer, what
will you get?

“A behavioral contingency.”

Look around, contingencies are all around you.They’re everywhere that you go.You try everything you can to escape the pain of shock,Rudolf knows.

If all else fails and you can’t avoid aversive shock and being really annoyed.I know a way you can stop this mess.Its called a lever press, and that’s what it’s for.

So come on respond.Press your paw right down on it.Come on respond.Press the lever down now.I know you can do it.

All you need is some water reinforcement.It’s right there under your nose.Move aside, just a bit, you almost touched it.Please just stand on your toes.
![Page 13: Respond Project](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061201/547a2726b479597c098b496e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
I will shape your successive approximations to pressing the lever down.If you do it, you will get water now.That’s the situation.That’s how it’s done.

Water’s given for pressing, not just for your cleaning and scratching.After you have learned that, you will learn how to pull the chain, touch the sticker.Then you’ll be a well-trained rat now.

Force, duration, frequency describe responses, not stimuli.Response, behavior, stimulus all of these apply to us.Thinking, rules, such as that apply to humans, but not rats.

When reinforcement’s intermittent, it makes extinction more resistant.Greater effort, quicker satiation, but you’ll respond under deprivation.

That’s the way it always goes, when you learn to use your toes.Now you know how to pull the chain.I can’t believe how quick you learned this game.

Don’t just stand there, let’s get to it.Press the lever, there’s nothing to it.Respond…..
