Q

the reappearance of previously reinforced behavior

A

Resurgence

17
Q

A

Spontaneous recovery

18
Q

other schedules

A

FT - fixed time

VT - variable time

FD - fixe duration

VD - variable duration

Progressive ratio schedule

break point

(DR)?

19
Q

reinforcement is delivered after a fixed amount of time regardless of what behavior occurs

A

FT

20
Q

reinforcement is delivered after an average amount of time regardless of what behavior occurs

A

VT

21
Q

reinforcement is contingent on the continuous performance of a behavior for a fixed period of time

A

FD

22
Q

reinforcement is contingent on the continuous performance of a behavior for an average period of time

A

VD

23
Q

the requirement for reinforcement increases in a predetermined way following each reinforcer

A

Progressive ratio schedule

24
Q

the point which behavior stops on a progressive schedule

A

Break point

25
Q

the procedure of gradually increasing the number of responses required to reinforcement

A

Stretching the ratio

26
Q

the disruption of the pattern of responding due to stretching the ratio too abruptly

A

Ratio strain

27
Q

Six types of complex schedules

A

MIXED SCHEDULE

MULTIPLE SCHEDULE

CHAIN SCHEDULE

TANDEM SCHEDULE

COOPERATIVE SCHEDULE

CONCURRENT SCHEDULE

28
Q

two or more simple schedules alternate each associated with a particular stimulus

A

Multiple schedule

29
Q

two or more simple schedules alternate with neither associated with a particular stimulus

A

Mixed schedule

30
Q

reinforcement is contingent on the completion of a last in a series of schedules none of which is associated with a particular stimulus

A

Tandem schedule

30
Q

reinforcement is delivered contingent on the completion of the last in a series of schedules each associated with a different stimulus

A

Chain schedule

31
Q

reinforcement is dependent on the behavior of two or more individuals

A

Cooperative schedule

32
Q

two or more schedules are available simultaneously

A

Concurrent schedule

33
Q

the tendency of behavior to be more resistant to extinction following intermittent reinforcement than continuous reinforcement

A

Partial reinforcement effect

34
Q

the principle that the rate of responding on two or more reinforcement schedules will match the rate of reinforcement on each schedule

A

Matching law
