Paul: Your "functionally" equivalence idea seems to be conceptually neat but 
the reality is that the only equivalence is that of a reinforcer given 
contingent at the end of the run and the bar press.The end may justify the 
means,but means may not be equivalent.Another difference I perceive is that the 
process of successive approximation must be
used in the bar press paradigm,but maze running is simply a matter of right or 
left physical turns.
I am still trying to figure out how the various schedules of reinforcement 
would be implemented in the maze running paradigm.
