| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| FR | Fixed-Ratio; Fixed # of responses for S+; example: repeatedly pushing an elevator button until it comes, even though you only need to push it once |
| Schedule of Reinforcement | Rules for Beahvior: S+ or not |
| Ratio Strain | ^ of S+ too quickly |
| Advantages of Intermittent | Works better in real world |
| Advantages of Intermittent | Harder to Satiate |
| CRF | continuous reinforcement; every response S+ |
| Advantages of Intermittent | Works more consistently |
| Free-Operant Procedure | Free response, no restraint |
| Maintenance Phase | Maintain the behavior |
| Advantages of Intermittent | Longer to extinguish |
| Acquistion Phase | Learning |
| Intermittent Reinforcement | Some responses S+ |
| Intermittent Reinforcement | The maintenance of a behavior by reinforcing it only occasionally |
| Schedule of Reinforcement | Rule specifying which occurrences of a given behavior, if any, will be reinforced |
| Continuous Reinforcement | Each instance of a response is reinforced |
| Extinction | Withholding a reinforcer following a previously reinforced response, with the effect that the response decreases in frequency |
| Fixed-Ratio | Reinforcer is presented following a fixed number of instances of a particular response |
| Variable-Ratio | Reinforcer occurs only after a certain number of responses, where the number varies unpredictable from one reinforcement to the next |
| Fixed-Interval | Reinforcer is presented following a fixed number of instances of a particular response |
| Variable Interval | Reinforcer occurs only if the response occurs after an interval of time, that varies unpredictable from one reinforcement to the next |
| Fixed-Duration | Reinforcer is presented only if a response occurs for a fixed period of time |
| Variable-Duration | Reinforcer occurs only if a response occurs for an interval of time that changes unpredictably from one reinforcement to the next |
