- •
Rats preference for discriminative vs non-discriminative alternatives differing in probability of reinforcement was studied.
- •
We also analyzed the relationship between choice behavior and the effects of the conditioned inhibitor.
- •
We replicated the finding of optimal choice behavior, in contrast to pigeons’ suboptimal choice.
- •
Optimal choice behavior was associated to a strong effect of the conditioned inhibitors.
- •
The conditioned inhibition did not dissipate, in contrast to what has been found in pigeons.
