Adaptron Test Run – 1 12th Sept 2011

I've introduced the strategy that two sequential stimuli can only be combined when they are both the same - novel or familiar. But when it combines two familiar stimuli to produce a novel one as in step 10 below BCA is produced. At step 11 the B produces B and AB which are familiar but CAB is novel. Should it stop here and have CAB attract attention? What it does is combine the novel BCA with the novel CAB to produce the novel BCAB. Is this correct?? I think it is because if I had received two novel stimuli in a row I would combine them. The objective is to find the biggest combination of novel stimuli.
