In continuation of a previous paper, a mechanism of delayed reflexes is considered more in detail. Equations governing such a mechanism are established and approximately solved. The formulae thus obtained describe the phenomenon of “concentration” of a conditioned reflex around a definite time interval after stimulation. Applied along the lines discussed in the previous paper to some simple combinations of stimuli and responses the formulae lead to a description of the elimination of errors by trial. They give a relation between the number of repetitions, necessary to eliminate a wrong act, and other constants, describing the situation.
