Complex effects of reward upshift on consummatory behavior
(Elsevier Science, 2016-08)
Exposing rats to an upshift from a small reward to a larger reward sometimes yields evidence of consummatory successive positive contrast (cSPC), an effect that could be a suitable animal model of positive emotion. However, ...
Un análisis de los efectos ansiolíticos del etanol sobre el contraste negativo sucesivo consumatorioAn analysis of the anxiolytic effects of ethanol on consummatory successive negative contrast
(Universidad del Rosario, 2009)
The anxiolytic properties of ethanol (1 g/kg, 15% dose, i.p.) were studied in two experiments with rats involving incentive downshifts from a 32% to a 4% sucrose solution. In Experiment 1, alcohol administration before a ...
Consummatory successive negative contrast in rats: Assessment through orofacial taste reactivity responses
(Academic Press, 2018-08)
Rats exposed to a downshift from a large reward (32% sucrose) to a small reward (4% sucrose) show an abrupt and transient reduction in consumption in comparison with animals that are always exposed to the small reward. ...
The effect of conditioned inhibitors and preexposed cues on the outcome-specific Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer effect in humans
(Sage, 2020)
Using a human Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT) task, Alarcon and Bonardi showed that the selective elevation of instrumental responding produced by excitatory transfer cues was reduced when these cues were presented ...
Monetary and non-monetary incentives to boost tax payment. A controlled experiment
(Universidad Nacional de Misiones. Facultad de Ciencias Económicas. Programa de Posgrado en Administración, 2012-06-19)
After centuries in which control and punishment formed the basis of policies designed to combat tax evasion, the results in many world economies are far from expected. Paying taxes is a resisted action, a few people are ...
Consummatory suppression due to incentive downshift is not a consequence of enhanced search behavior
(Elsevier Science, 2013-06)
Rats shifted from 32% to 4% sucrose solution consume less from the 4% solution than rats that experience only the 4% solution. This consummatory suppression, a phenomenon known as consummatory successive negative contrast ...
Common agency and public good provision under asymmetric information
(Econometric Society, 2010-05)
The provision of public goods under asymmetric information has most often been viewed as a mechanism design problem under the aegis of an uninformed mediator. This paper focuses on institutional contexts without such a ...
Coalition incentives and party bias in Chile
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2021-08-01)
This article revisits the debate over Chile's binomial electoral rules and its consequences and examines how the new electoral system conceived by a democratic congress altered political competition. It utilizes a seat-vote ...
Incentive constraints in games with bounded memory
(Springer Heidelberg, 2014-02)
In this paper I analyze a repeated coordination game between a bounded memory player and a fully rational player. A bounded memory player is a player who is subject to imperfect recall, but, conditional on this constraint, ...
