Why did the pigeons eventually demonstrate superstitious behavior?

▸ They received food pellets at random intervals.

▸ They "accidentally" behaved in a certain way before the food pellet arrived and repeated it to get more food.

▸ They received no reward for "normal" behavior.

▸ They believed thrusting their heads into the upper corner of the cage would bring rewards.
