Duration Schedules
|
reinforcement occurs after the behavior has been engaged in for a continuous period of time
|
|
Fixed duration
|
response is reinforced only if it occurs a set time after last reinforcement, reinforcement to reinforcement
|
|
Variable duration
|
the interval time that the behavior must be engaged in continuously changes unpredictably from reinforcement to reinforcement
|
|
Ratio schedules
|
make reinforcement contingent on a certain number of responses being completed
|
|
Simple interval schedules
|
make reinforcement contingent on a response being made after a certain time period has elapsed
|
|
interval schedules with limited hold
|
make reinforcemnet contingent on response occuring within a limited period of time after a certain time period has elapsed
|
|
duration schedules
|
make reinforcement contingent on a response being made for a certain continuous period of time
|
|
limited hold
|
a deadline for meeting the response requirement of a schedule of reinforcement, that a response will produce the reinforcer
|
|
Are interval schedules with limited hold produce effects similar to those produced by ratio schedules ex: a bus will wait only a limite time
|
True
|
|
Variable-interval
|
the length of the interval changes unpredictably from one reinforcement to the next
|
|
Fixed-Interval
|
the first response after a fixed period of time following the previous reinforcemnet is reinforced and a new interval begins, the amount of time that must elapse before reinforcement becomes available
|
|
Fixed ratio
|
reinforcement occurs each time a set number of response of a particular type are emitted
|
|
ratio strain
|
deterioration of responding from increasing an FR schedule too rapidly
|
|
variable-ratio
|
the number of responses required to produce reinforcement changes unpredictably from one reinforcement to the next postreinforcement pause
|
|
Examples of VR
|
Slot Machines, Dates before the right one come along, casting a fish net
|
|
Points to know about FR
|
want a high rate of responding use FR schedule like the rat and the level to get reinforcement. FR is more commonly used because it is simpler
|
|
intermittent reinforcement
|
refers ti tge maintenance of a behavior by reinforcing it only occasionally rather than every time it occurs.
|
|
continuous reinforcement
|
simplest schedule,
|
|
extinction
|
opposite of continuous reinforcement
