Troy University Week 7 Reinforcement Schedules Discussion

 

I’m working on a writing discussion question and need an explanation to help me learn.

Understanding schedules of reinforcement can assist a behavior analyst in understanding why a behavior occurs at a certain rate or how to promote a rate of behavior that is desired.

In your post:

  • Define continuous reinforcement schedule and intermittent reinforcement schedule, either in your own words or paraphrased.
  • Provide an example of continuous reinforcement and explain why it is continuous reinforcement.
  • Provide two examples of intermittent reinforcement and explain how each one is intermittent reinforcement:
    • One demonstrating a ratio schedule.
    • One demonstrating an interval schedule.
