This study demonstrates that overtraining in temporal discrimination modifies temporal stimulus control in a bisection task and produces habitual responding, as evidenced through insensitivity to food devaluation. Rats were trained or overtrained in a 2-versus 8-sec temporal discrimination task, with each duration associated with a lever (left or right) and food (grain or sucrose). Overtraining produced a leftward shift in the bisection point. Devaluation treatment induced a differential loss of responding depending on stimulus duration (short versus long) and the level of training (training versus overtraining). The relationships between timing behavior and habitual behavior are discussed.
