De Moraes Ferrari, E. A., & Todorov, J. C. (1980). Concurrent avoidance of shocks by pigeons pecking a key. J Exp Anal Behav., 30(3), 329–333.
Abstract: Three pigeons were studied on concurrent, unsignaled, avoidance schedules in a two-key procedure. Shock-shock intervals were two seconds in both schedules. The response-shock interval on one key was always 22 seconds, while the response-shock interval associated with the other key was varied from 7 to 52 seconds in different experimental conditions. Response rates on the key associated with the varied schedule tended to decrease when the response-shock interval length was increased. Responding on the key associated with the constant schedule was not systematically affected.
