Continuous reinforcement
Provides reinforcement for every occurrence of a behavior
Advantageous for skill acquisition acquisition

Continuous reinforcement
Intermittent schedule of reinforcement (INT)
Used to strengthen established behaviors
Usually necessary for the progression to naturally occurring reinforcement.

Conditioned reinforcers
Neutral stimuli that begin to function s reinforcers as a result of being paid with other rienforcers

Conditioned reinforcers
Generalized conditioned reinforcers
A type of conditioned reinforcer that has been paired with many conditioned and unconditioned reinforcers
Do not depend on a specific EO to be effective
e.g. tokens, money, points

Premack principle
A higher frequency activity can reinforce a lower frequency activity (access to TV used to reinforce deprivation homework)
A higher frequency activity can reinforce a lower frequency activity (access to TV used to reinforce deprivation homework)
Premack principle
RDH (relative deprivation hypothesis)-
if a more frequently occurring activity is restricted (TV watching) it serves as an EO for TV as a reinforcer
if a more frequently occurring activity is restricted (TV watching) it serves as an EO for TV as a reinforcer

Unconditioned reinforcers and punishers
Biologically based
Function irrespective of prior learning history
