Behaviorist Theory Partial Reinforcement Four schedules
behavior is reinforced only part of the time acquired more slowly more resistant to extinction More stable Lasts longer Four schedules
5
Operant Conditioning Fixed-ratio schedules Predictable
Reinforced only after a specified number of responses produces high, steady rate of responding brief pause after the delivery of the reinforcement Ie: Summer Library Reading
6
Operant Conditioning Variable-ratio schedules Unpredictable
Reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses produces high, steady rate of responding Ie: Gambling- slots, sales, and lottery
7
Operant Conditioning Fixed-interval schedules Predictable
Reinforced after a specified amt of time has elapsed produces high, steady rate of responding at end short bursts Slow response/ inactivity immediately after Ie: morphine drip
8
Operant Conditioning Variable-interval schedules Unpredictable
Reinforced after an unspecified amt of time has elapsed produces low, steady rate of responding
