Resumo: | The present study s aim was to build an experimental analog of metacontingencies. The experiment started with on adult (P1) working on a computer. At each trial 4 numbers were presented on a row and the participant would type 4 numbers on a row underneath. If the sum on each column (which was not showed) was an odd number, points (exchanged by money at the end of the session) were added on a counter on the screen. Points would be subtracted for each column with an even number as the sum. A second participant was introduced when P1 s behavior was stable. Both participants worked under the same contingencies, sharing the computer screen (each side showed one of the participant s trial) and mouse. Once their behavior stabilized, experimental manipulations were added to answer the following questions: Interlocking behavioral contingencies involving both participants and their aggregate product would be selected if a consequence was made contingent on the aggregate product? What would happen when new generations of participants were introduced? The following experimental contingency was introduced: when the sum of the 4 numbers typed by one participant was larger than the sum of the numbers typed by the other, bonus points were added (in a box on the screen) for both participants. Bonuses were added independently of the points added or subtracted. A new participant substituted the oldest one when a stability criterion was met. All experimental contingencies remained the same when new generations were added. Two experiments were conducted. Results of Experiment 1, with 6 participants (6 generations) suggested the selection of a metacontingency: The dyads P3/P4, P4/P5, and P5/P6 systematically behaved producing the aggregate product and consequent bonuses. But the exam of these participant s response topographies indicated that another possible interpretation was that the behavior of one participant alone (who typed the same high numbers on every trial), independent of the other, produced the aggregate product. Minor changes on the screen to make the bonuses more salient and an increase on the magnitude of bonus points were introduced on Experiment 2. Once again results suggested that selection of metacontingencies occurred for 3 (of 7) dyads whose behavior consistently produced bonuses. The analysis of these participants response topographies added to this interpretation. Discussion of the present experiment emphasizes the feasibility of building experimental analogs of metacontingencies |

Discussion of the present experiment emphasizes the feasibility of building experimental analogs of metacontingenciesO presente estudo teve como objetivo construir um análogo experimental de metacontingências. O experimento foi iniciado com um participante que trabalhava em um computador. . Em cada tenativa, 4 númertos eram apresnetados na tela em uma fileira e o particpante digitava outros 4 números em uma fileira imediatamente abaixo. Se a soma de cada coluna (número apresentado pelo computador + número digitado pelo participante) fosse um número ímpar, eram acrescentados pontos (trocáveis por dinheiro no final da sessão) a um contador na tela. Cada cluna que smasse um número par produzia a retorada de pontos. Estas somas não eram visíveis para o participante. Quando o comportamento de P1 se estabilizou, um segundo participante foi introduzido e as mesmas contingências mantiveram-se para os dois participantes, trabalhando lado a lado diante de uma mesma tela de computador, produzindo comportamentos independentes. Para responder às perguntas: (a) haveria seleção de contingências entrelaçadas e seu produto agregado, se tal produto produzisse conseqüências para ambos os participantes e (b) tal seleção teria efeitos sobre sucessivas gerações de participantes, as seguinte manipulações foram intoduzidas: (a) quando a soma dos 4 números digitados por um particpante era maior/ menor que a soma dos números digitados pelo outro, ambos os participantes recebiam bônus (trocados por dinheiro), independente dos pontos contingentes às colunas; (b) quando a dupla atingia critério de estabilidade um dos participantes era substituído por um participante ingênuo. Dois experimentos com estas características fora conduzidos. Os resultados do Experimento 1, do qual participaram 6 adultos (formando 6 gerações) sugeriram a ocorrência da seleção do produto agregado, uma vez que 3 duplas sistematicamente produziram bônius. No entanto, o exame das topografias de respostas (números digitados) mostrou que um participante sistematicamente escolheu apenas certos números, indicando a possibilidade de ausência de contingências entrelaçadas. No segundo experimento, do qual participaram 7 adultos (7 gerações) foram feitas pequenas mudanças no aparato para tornar a liberação de bônus mais saliente e aumentou-se a mangnitiude dos bônus. Os resultados mais uma vez sugeriram a seleção de contingências entrelaçadas e seu produto agregado, uma vez que as duplas de 3 gerações sistematicamente produziram bônus. O exame das topografias de respostas individuais fortaleceu esta interpretação. A discussão enfatiza que o modelo experimental utilizado parece útil para esse tipo de investigação e pesquisas futuras que utilizem variações dele podem produzir resultados experimentais sobre análogos de metacontingênciasCoordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superiorapplication/pdfhttp://tede2.pucsp.br/tede/retrieve/35518/Joao%20Mariano%20Cenacchi%20Pereira.pdf.jpgporPontifícia Universidade Católica de São PauloPrograma de Estudos Pós-Graduados em Psicologia Experimental: Análise do ComportamentoPUC-SPBRPsicologiaMetacontingênciasAnálogos experimentaisProdutos agregadosContingências comportamentais entrelaçadasAvaliacao de comportamentoMetacontingenciesExperimental analogsAggregate productsInterlocking behavioral contingenciesCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::PSICOLOGIA::PSICOLOGIA EXPERIMENTALInvestigação experimental de metacontingências: separação do produto agregado e da conseqüência individualinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações da PUC_SPinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPTEXTJoao Mariano Cenacchi Pereira.pdf.txtJoao Mariano Cenacchi Pereira.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain102300https://repositorio.pucsp.br/xmlui/bitstream/handle/16830/3/Joao%20Mariano%20Cenacchi%20Pereira.pdf.txtb27610d68a3107404bed4e9e79abdd15MD53ORIGINALJoao Mariano Cenacchi Pereira.pdfapplication/pdf2410314https://repositorio.pucsp.br/xmlui/bitstream/handle/16830/1/Joao%20Mariano%20Cenacchi%20Pereira.pdff2e1a9fed4288eb1aaabb7838274f5e7MD51THUMBNAILJoao Mariano Cenacchi Pereira.pdf.jpgJoao Mariano Cenacchi Pereira.pdf.jpgGenerated Thumbnailimage/jpeg3558https://repositorio.pucsp.br/xmlui/bitstream/handle/16830/2/Joao%20Mariano%20Cenacchi%20Pereira.pdf.jpg90512650095344543134f18c4b43ef82MD52handle/168302022-04-27 17:32:49.754oai:repositorio.pucsp.br:handle/16830Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertaçõeshttps://sapientia.pucsp.br/https://sapientia.pucsp.br/oai/requestbngkatende@pucsp.br||rapassi@pucsp.bropendoar:2022-04-27T20:32:49Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações da PUC_SP - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false |

Both participants worked under the same contingencies, sharing the computer screen (each side showed one of the participant s trial) and mouse. Once their behavior stabilized, experimental manipulations were added to answer the following questions: Interlocking behavioral contingencies involving both participants and their aggregate product would be selected if a consequence was made contingent on the aggregate product? What would happen when new generations of participants were introduced? The following experimental contingency was introduced: when the sum of the 4 numbers typed by one participant was larger than the sum of the numbers typed by the other, bonus points were added (in a box on the screen) for both participants. Bonuses were added independently of the points added or subtracted. A new participant substituted the oldest one when a stability criterion was met. All experimental contingencies remained the same when new generations were added. Two experiments were conducted. Results of Experiment 1, with 6 participants (6 generations) suggested the selection of a metacontingency: The dyads P3/P4, P4/P5, and P5/P6 systematically behaved producing the aggregate product and consequent bonuses. But the exam of these participant s response topographies indicated that another possible interpretation was that the behavior of one participant alone (who typed the same high numbers on every trial), independent of the other, produced the aggregate product. Minor changes on the screen to make the bonuses more salient and an increase on the magnitude of bonus points were introduced on Experiment 2. Once again results suggested that selection of metacontingencies occurred for 3 (of 7) dyads whose behavior consistently produced bonuses.
