Multiple and Mixed Schedules
Two schedules alternate:
Multiple: A different stimulus accompanies each one
Mixed: They both operate in the presence of the same stimulus
๏Two pigeon keys:
๏The schedule key, on which pecks may produce food
๏The observing key, on which pecks do not produce food but may change whether relevant stimuli are available on the schedule key

•A METHODOLOGICAL NOTE:
•Both the Limulus studies and the pigeon experiments use single subject designs.
•Our experimental methods have more in common with the methods of biology than with those of psychology.

Chained and Tandem Schedules
A sequence of schedules must be completed (e.g., completing components A and B and C in that order produces a reinforcer):
Chained: A different stimulus accompanies each component
Tandem: Each component operates in the presence of the same stimulus

• The initial links in concurrent chains are like doors, and the terminal links are like what’s behind them
• The pigeon’s pecks on the left key are like knocking on the left door and those on the right key are like knocking on the right door
• We judge which room the pigeon prefers on the basis of which door it knocks on (pecks) more often
