The Redundancy Effect on Human Predictive Learning: Evidence against a Propositional Interpretation

Mostrar todas las versiones(2)

The redundancy effect is the finding of greater learning when an X stimulus is trained in an A+ AX+ blocking procedure, than when a Y stimulus is trained in a BY+ CY- discrimination procedure. These findings are new and theoretically challenging for all conditioning theories that calculate learning...

Pinto, Jorge A. Núñez, Daniel E. Redundancy effect blocking discrimination propositional reasoning. The redundancy effect is the finding of greater learning when an X stimulus is trained in an A+ AX+ blocking procedure, than when a Y stimulus is trained in a BY+ CY- discrimination procedure. These findings are new and theoretically challenging for all conditioning theories that calculate learning based on a common error. For this reason, we alternatively examined the possibility that the phenomenon is the result of a propositional reasoning. In an experiment, we replicated the basic effect and we found out that the addition of instructions on the occurrence of the consequences at a submaximal level does not have a significant impact on the redundancy effect. These findings are discussed with regard to a propositional and associative approach based on the assumption that the experimental stimuli share a common feature. El efecto de redundancia es el hallazgo de un mayor aprendizaje a un estímulo X entrenado en un procedimiento de bloqueo A+ AX+, que a un estímulo Y entrenado en un procedimiento de discriminación BY+ CY-. Estos hallazgos son nuevos y teóricamente desafiantes para todas las teorías del condicionamiento que calculan el aprendizaje en base a un error común. Es por ello que examinamos alternativamente la posibilidad que el fenómeno sea el resultado de un razonamiento proposicional. En un experimento, replicamos el efecto básico y encontramos que la adición de instrucciones sobre la ocurrencia de las consecuencias a un nivel sub-máximo no tiene un efecto significativo sobre el efecto de redundancia. Estos hallazgos son discutidos en relación con una aproximación proposicional y asociativa basada en el supuesto que los estímulos experimentales comparten un elemento común.
