Abstract

This study investigated how goal-directed and habitual behaviors recover after extinction within the context of the resurgence effect, a form of relapse induced by the removal or worsening of alternative reinforcement. Rats were trained to press a target lever with one reinforcer (O1) for either minimal (4) or extended (16) sessions. An extinction test after the completion of O1 devaluation confirmed that minimal and extended training formed goal-directed and habitual behaviors, respectively. Then, pressing an alternative lever was reinforced with a second reinforcer (O2) while the target response was placed on extinction. When O2 was discontinued, the minimally trained target response resurged with goal-directed status as in the extinction test. However, the extinguished habitual behavior in the extensively trained rats did not recover as a habit but instead with goal-directed status, possibly due to the context specificity of habits or the introduction of a new response–reinforcer contingency. The critical finding that reinforcer devaluation consistently led to less resurgence regardless of the amount of acquisition training provides a clinical implication that coupling differential-reinforcement-of-alternative-behavior (DRA) treatments with the devaluation of the associated reinforcer of problematic behavior could effectively diminish its recurrence.

目标行动和习惯的恢复。
本研究调查了目标定向行为和习惯行为在消退后如何在复发效应的背景下恢复,复发效应是一种由替代性强化物的去除或恶化而诱发的复发形式。研究人员训练大鼠用一个强化物(O1)按下目标杠杆,训练时间为最短(4 次)或最长(16 次)。O1 贬值完成后的消退测试证实,最少训练和延长训练分别形成了目标定向行为和习惯行为。然后,用第二个强化物(O2)来强化按下另一个杠杆的行为,同时对目标反应进行消隐。当停止使用 O2 时,最小化训练后的目标反应又会以目标定向的状态出现,就像在消隐试验中一样。然而,在广泛训练的大鼠中,被熄灭的习惯性行为并没有恢复为习惯,而是恢复为目标定向状态,这可能是由于习惯的情境特异性或引入了新的反应-强化物或然性。重要的发现是,无论习得训练的量有多大,强化物的贬值都会导致较少的复发,这一发现提供了一种临床启示,即将差异强化替代行为(DRA)治疗与问题行为相关强化物的贬值结合起来,可以有效减少问题行为的复发。
