Abstract
180 college Ss classified visually presented geometric stimuli in a repeated measures factorial design with 6 levels of intermittent reinforcement (IR), 3 levels of task complexity, and 2 different problems. Each S served in 2 successive stages of sorting where the relevant and irrelevant dimensions were reversed. As IR increased in Stage 1, performance improved. Negative transfer from Stage 1 to Stage 2 became progressively less with increased IR. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)Keywords
