Abstract
A test of the hypothesis that a delay of secondary reinforcement with reference to its usual place in the habituation sequence after overlearning tends to increase the reward value of the secondary reinforcing stimulus. This hypothesis is verified and interpreted in terms of a "wanting-practice" variable defined in terms of the time that the secondary drive exists in an aroused state.
