Two experiments examined the relationship between number of training trials in a runway, various segments of the instrumental response, and effects of magnitude of reward. In each, separate groups of rats received 120 training trials with large and small rewards, respectively. Results of both experiments indicated that significant effects of magnitude were established and persisted in the start and run measures. Transitory effects of magnitude were shown in the goal measures of both experiments.

Recently, eye movements have become a widely used response measure for studying spoken language processing in both adults and children, in situations where participants comprehend and generate utterances about a circumscribed “Visual World” while fixation is monitored, typically using a free-view eye-tracker. Psycholinguists now use the Visual World eye-movement method to study both language production and language comprehension, in studies that run the gamut of current topics in language processing. Eye movements are a response measure of choice for addressing many classic questions about spoken language processing in psycholinguistics. This article reviews the burgeoning Visual World literature on language comprehension, highlighting some of the seminal studies and examining how the Visual World approach has contributed new insights to our understanding of spoken word recognition, parsing, reference resolution, and interactive conversation. It considers some of the methodological issues that come to the fore when psycholinguists use eye movements to examine spoken language comprehension.

An attempt was made to determine whether or not variation in autokinetic word writing (AWT) instructions would increase word production. Normative characteristics of 99 Ss' word productions are presented. It was generally concluded that, while increased word production does result from different instructions, the reliability of this response measure remains questionable.

This research evaluated the sensitivity of four observer response measures to variations in the character size and dot luminance of a dot matrix display. Specifically, the research determined the sensitivity of recognition accuracy, response time, tachistoscopic recognition accuracy, and threshold visibility. Alphanumeric characters were presented to six subjects in noncontextual form on a variable-parameter CRT display programmed and driven by a minicomputer. Recognition accuracy (percent correct response) was found to be the response measure that is most sensitive to the display parameters of character size and dot luminance. Character size, dot luminance, and viewing distance proved to have consistent and significant effects at viewing distances greater than 1.52 m. At lesser viewing distances, these parameters had little effect. The results suggest that there is no major difference between the display requirements for computer-generated dot matrix displays versus those for conventional CRT displays.
