Day 9 - FR7
Time: 30:00
Protocol ID: 20 (FR7)
Event 1 Total: 254
Reinforcement Total: 36
Goal: Reach over 200 bar presses
Goal Reached: Yes
Still roughly 1/2 of the time spent in the box is spent exploring the magazine. She has even gotten more comfortable rolling over while trying to reach her head up the magazine, rolling 3 times in the first 3 minutes.
She is much more likely to press the bar multiple (3-4+) times in a row, as opposed to pressing it once or twice and looking for a reward.
13:00 - Spending less time exploring magazine and more time pressing the bar multiple times in a row.
She seems to have strengthened the association of the bar and reinforcement and is starting to extinguish the chain of exploring the magazine, pressing the bar, and receiving reinforcement.
PRPs seem to last only 10-15 seconds. Also, when one does occur, she will generally press the bar once before taking a PRP.
Rarely, if ever, will she press the bar 7 times in a row. Usually, she will press 4-5 times in a row and search for a reinforcement before going back and finishing the ratio.
