Abstract
DESIGNED TO DETERMINE WHETHER EXPERIMENTALLY INDUCED RESPONSE BIASES CAN GENERALIZE FROM 1 CONCEPT TOPIC TO ANOTHER, AND WHETHER THE "CONDITIONING" EFFECTS ARE A FUNCTION OF TIME, TASK FORMAT, OR THE PRESENCE OF E. 2ND, THESE STUDIES WERE CONDUCTED TO ASCERTAIN WHETHER S'S ABILITY TO VERBALIZE THE RESPONSE-REINFORCEMENT CONTINGENCY IS RELATED TO THE SPECIFICITY OF THE POSTEXPERIMENTAL QUESTIONNAIRE. THE RESULTS WARRANT THE FOLLOWING CONCLUSIONS: (1) "CONDITIONING" EFFECTS GENERALIZE ACROSS CONCEPT TOPICS; (2) THE EXPERIMENTAL TREATMENT IS NOT RESTRICTED BY TIME, FORMAT, NOR IS IT RELATED TO E WHO ORIGINALLY ADMINISTERED REINFORCEMENT, AND (3) S'S ABILITY TO SPECIFY THE EXPERIMENTAL ARRANGEMENTS IS PRIMARILY A FUNCTION OF THE SENSITIVITY OF THE POSTEXPERIMENTAL QUESTIONNAIRE EMPLOYED.
