Response selection in operant learning.

We show that simple, contiguity-based, nonassociative response-selection process provides a qualitative account for both anomalous and nonanomalous properties of operant conditioning. The process can easily be extended to permit associative effects; it may therefore represent the initial processing stage for all conditioning in higher vertebrates.
