    A study of dogs' behavior in conditions of choice with stereotype reinforcement showed that in experiments without punishment for errors, the conditioned activity did not reach its optimal level, while in experiments with punishment most of the dogs formed an optimal behavior. Formation of stereotype choice of reinforcement place proceeded in two stages. At the first stage the strategy of repeating the previous reaction prevailed after the erroneous one. At the second stage, alternation reactions prevailed after erroneous choices.
