The generalization gradients produced by the Sniffy program are based on those that resulted from visual stimulus discrimination learning involving pigeons. The translation from visual stimuli and pigeons to auditory stimuli and rats was instituted in order to introduce you to two by-products of S+/S- discrimination learning:
a. gradient displacement and gradient peak.
b. gradient flattening and gradient shift..
c. generalization contrast and behavioral peak.
d. peak shift and behavioral contrast.
d. peak shift and behavioral contrast.
Answer feedback: The Sniffy program simulates auditory stimulus discrimination learning and stimulus generalization in order to replicate findings with pigeons that identified the peak shift phenomenon and that of behavioral contrast.
