Accepted Answer

Question 2

Please match the following definitions with the terms below.
(NOT ALL OF THE TERMS BELOW WILL BE USED!)
-___ Fixed-interval (FI) schedule of reinforcement

Accepted Answer

A) A reinforcer is contingent on the first response after a fixed interval of time since the last opportunity for reinforcement. 
B) A fixed-interval schedule often produces a scallop—a gradual increase in the rate of responding, with responding occurring at a high rate just before reinforcement is available. No responding occurs for some time after reinforcement. 
C) A reinforcer is delivered after the passage of a fixed period of time, independent of the response. 
D) Behaving as if the response causes some specific outcome, when it really does not. 
E) A reinforcer is contingent on the first response after a variable interval of time since the last opportunity for reinforcement.
F)Variable-interval schedules produce a moderate rate of responding, with almost no post-reinforcement pausing.
G)The number of responses or the amount of time before a response extinguishes.
H)Intermittent reinforcement makes the response more resistant to extinction than does continuous reinforcement.
