Impatience, Anticipatory Feelings and Uncertainty: A Dynamic Experiment on Time Preferences
2011
Social Science Research Network
Moreover, choice reversal over time is common even if temptation plays no role. We propose and measure three distinct concepts of choice reversal over time to study time consistency. ...
We study time preferences in a real-effort experiment with a one-month horizon. We report that two thirds of choices suggest negative time preferences. ...
For instance, static choice reversal either comes with dynamic or calendar choice reversal but not with both. ...

A novel multichoice touchscreen paradigm for assessing cognitive flexibility in mice
2018
Learning & memory (Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.)
However, with two-stimulus reversal, it is difficult to determine whether response errors are due excessive perseveration, deficient learning, or other problems with updating. ...
To address this limitation, we developed a mouse three-choice touchscreen-based visual reversal task, in which the contingencies of two stimuli were switched on reversal but a third, simultaneously presented ...
Red lines represent choice of the S1 − (discrimination sessions, left) or S new (reversal sessions, right), while green lines represent the S2 − (discrimination sessions, left) or S never (reversal sessions ...

Behavioral flexibility and response selection are impaired after limited exposure to oxycodone
2014
Learning & memory (Cold Spring Harbor, N.Y.)
We hypothesized that if oxycodone impaired behavioral flexibility, then drug-exposed rats should learn reversals more slowly than controls. ...
Reversal learning was tested 36 h after the final drug exposure. ...
Two-way ANOVAs were used to assess if performance during the reversal session (TtC) covaried with performance during the initial learning, retention, and reminder sessions. ...

Pre-commitment and flexibility in a time decision experiment
2009
Journal of Risk and Uncertainty
Through an experiment we compare preference-based vs. uncertainty-based explanations for choice reversal over time by eliciting choices for pre-commitment and flexibility. ...
An agent with dynamically inconsistent preferences may deviate from her plan of action as the future draws near. An exponential discounter may do exactly the same when facing an uncertain future. ...
This measurement of risk did not ultimately correlate with choice reversal, commitment, nor flexibility. ...

Midsession reversal learning: why do pigeons anticipate and perseverate?
2012
Learning & Behavior
In Experiment 2, we attempted to make the point of reversal in the session more salient by inserting irrelevant trials with stimuli different from the original discriminative stimuli, and for a separate ...
group, we added a 5-s time-out penalty following incorrect choices. ...
The logic involved in the use of improvement in serial reversal learning with increasing reversals as a measure of behavioral flexibility is that it measures the improvement in reversal performance relative ...

Results showed that these mutants were slower to attain a high level of choice accuracy on the discrimination task, but showed improved late reversal performance on sessions where correct choice was above ...

Preferential Involvement by Nucleus Accumbens Shell in Mediating Probabilistic Learning and Reversal Shifts
2014
Journal of Neuroscience
Shell inactivation also impaired reversal performance on a similar task where correct/incorrect choices always/never delivered reward. ...
Reinforcement contingencies were reversed repeatedly within a session. In well-trained rats, shell inactivation reduced the number of reversals completed and selectively reduced win-stay behavior. ...
Daily sessions consisted of 200 discrete choice trials, with an intertrial interval of 15 s (50 min total). ...

Dopamine D 3 Receptor Availability Is Associated with Inflexible Decision Making

Journal of Neuroscience
By combining PET imaging with the D 3 -preferring radioligand [ 11 C]-(ϩ)-PHNO, pharmacology, a novel three-choice probabilistic discrimination and reversal task and computational modeling of behavior ...
Computational modeling of choice behavior in the reversal phase indicated that [ 11 C]-(ϩ)-PHNO binding in the midbrain was related to the learning rate and sensitivity to positive, but not negative, feedback ...
Discussion By combining PET neuroimaging and D 3 receptor pharmacology with a novel within-session three-choice probabilistic acquisition and reversal-learning task in rats, the current study provides ...

Serial reversal learning and the evolution of behavioral flexibility in three species of North American corvids (Gymnorhinus cyanocephalus, Nucifraga columbiana, Aphelocoma californica)
2007
Journal of Comparative Psychology
The results are consistent with an evolutionary association between behavioral flexibility and social complexity. ...
The effect was most apparent in the 1st session following each reversal and did not reflect species differences in the rate of initial discrimination learning. ...

Pigeons' use of cues in a repeated five-trial-sequence, single-reversal task
2012
Learning & Behavior
We studied behavioral flexibility, or the ability to modify one's behavior in accordance with the changing environment, in pigeons using a reversal-learning paradigm. ...
The ideal strategy would be to start each sequence with a choice of S1 (the first correct stimulus) until it was no longer correct, and then to switch to S2 (the second correct stimulus), thus utilizing ...
With 16 fivetrial sequences per session, and with one reversal per sequence, it was possible to increase the number of reversal events while still keeping the number of trials per session at 80. ...

Mice engineered to mimic a common Val66Met polymorphism in the BDNF gene show greater sensitivity to reversal in environmental contingencies
2018
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience
Here, we examined multiple aspects of learning and cognitive flexibility in a relatively new BDNF Val66Met mouse model (BDNF Val68Met, Warnault et al., 2016), including multiple choice discrimination and ...
We found that mice homozygous for the Met allele show more efficient reversal learning in two different paradigms, but learn at rates comparable to Val homozygotes on the multiple choice discrimination ...

Age and sex differences in behavioral flexibility, sensitivity to reward value, and risky decision-making
2018
Behavioral Neuroscience
Here, we used adolescent and adult Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes to study instrumental behavior tasks that assess behavioral flexibility (strategy shifting and reversal learning; Exp. 1), sensitivity ...
In Exp. 1, we found that adolescents were faster to acquire reversal learning than adults but there were no differences in strategy shifting. ...
The session started with the original response strategy reinforced until rats had eight consecutive correct lever choices. ...
