| contents | The role of discriminative stimuli in the sunk cost effect Anton D. Navarro Edmund Fantino Psicología choice escalation Sunk Cost Effect discriminative stimuli We employed a behavior-analytic analog of the sunk cost effect in which alltrials started out with a short expected ratio to an imaginary monetary reward,but some trials assumed a longer expected ratio part way through the trial.Subjects had the (preferable) option of escaping the trial if the longer expectedratio had come into effect in order to bring on a new trial that again hada short expected ratio. With a between-subjects design we tested whether thepresence of discriminative stimuli correlated with the expected ratios wouldaffect escaping behavior. In one condition, such stimuli were present; in theother condition, they were absent. Subjects persisted significantly more in thecondition where discriminative stimuli were absent. 2007 artículo científico 0185-4534 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=59333102 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=593 Revista Mexicana de Análisis de la Conducta application/pdf Sociedad Mexicana de Análisis de la Conducta Revista Mexicana de Análisis de la Conducta (México) Num.1 Vol.33 |
