摘要

自变量和因变量之间的双曲线关系在行为实验分析中无处不在，《行为实验分析期刊》上有 150 多篇文章提到过这种关系。双曲线有两种主要形式：第一种描述了在可变间隔强化计划中，反应率与强化率之间的关系；它向最大值渐近上升。第二种描述了激励的当前等值与其延迟或（不）概率之间的关系；它从最大值下降到渐近线 0。它们的参数是什么意思？它们之间有什么联系？本文将回答前两个问题，并讨论最后一个问题。

Hyperbolae

Hyperbolic relations between independent and dependent variables are ubiquitous in the experimental analysis of behavior, mentioned in over 150 articles in the Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior. There are two principal forms of hyperbolae: The first describes the relation between response rate and reinforcement rate on variable-interval schedules of reinforcement; it rises asymptotically toward a maximum. The second describes the relation between the current equivalent value of an incentive and its delay or (im)probability; it falls from a maximum toward an asymptote of 0. Where do these come from? What do their parameters mean? How are they related? This article answers the first two questions and addresses the last.
