Abstract:
The available data on occasion setting led Susan Brandon and Allan Wagner (Brandon and Wagner, 1998; Wagner and Brandon, 2001) to formulate what has come to be known as a replaced-elements conception (REM) of context-dependent cues within the SOP model (Wagner, 1981). In the present paper, we review the development of the theory, and show how, with a few congenial assumptions about shared cues, it can address some of the major regularities concerning when the transfer of occasion setting does or does not occur. Among the particular examples are the relatively unique transfers that have been reported to occur between separate serial discriminations and between targets that have been trained with the same versus different reinforcers.
