Pigeons were trained to respond on a multiple variable‐interval 1‐min variable‐interval 1‐min schedule, then switched to a multiple variable‐interval 1‐min differential‐reinforcement‐of‐other‐behavior discrimination training. The rate of reinforcement was held constant during the shift from non‐differential reinforcement to discrimination training. Behavioral contrast and post‐discrimination inhibitory stimulus control followed the observation of a reduction in the rate of responding to the stimulus correlated with reinforcement for the non‐occurrence of pecking.
