The most lean schedules of reinforcement (1/6 and 2/6) were most resistant to extinction; however, the resistance to extinction was not related in an orderly fashion to schedule of reinforcement.doi:10.3758/BF03329039ParkerRonald K.Springer-VerlagPsychonomic Science...
3. Suitable for long-term behavior change3. Less resistant to extinction Fixed Interval Schedule Example Biweekly Paycheck:Most fast-food employees get paid every two weeks. 4. Variable Interval Schedule The variable interval schedule of reinforcement rewards the first behavior that is exhibited after...
However,intermittent reinforcementof the kind used in schedules of reinforcement does have one important quality—it produces robust responding that is significantly more resistant to extinction than whencontinuous reinforcementis used (cf.Ferster & Skinner, 1957). This is an important consideration when ...
However, intermittent reinforcement of the kind used in schedules of reinforcement does have one important quality—it produces robust responding that is significantly more resistant to extinction than when continuous reinforcement is used (cf. Ferster & Skinner, 1957). ...
The slower rate of extinction in DA D2R KO subjects suggests that D2Rs has a role in response persistence per se, but most importantly demon- strates that the role of D2Rs in the reinforcing effectiveness of food is not secondary to differences in extinction. Combined, these findings ...
A group partially rein forced with similar statements was more resistant to extinction than a group continuously reinforced. This effect was also found with dissimilar statements. No partial reinforcement effect was found with neutral statements or blank cards. ...
Answer to: Responses can be extinguished by a. stimulus generalizations. b. nonreinforcement. c. negative reinforcement. d. intermittent...
interaction DISCUSSION Both the partial-reward and partial-blocking groups were more resistant to extinction than were the continuous groups, and the relative increased persistence of these two partial groups was of about the same magnitude. There is, therefore, no basis to conclude that different ...
These results confirm earlier speculations that the reinforcement of academic behavior is (a) more likely to positively influene both academic and on-task behavior than in reinforcement of on-task behavior, and (b) is much more resistant to extinction following abrupt termination of the program....
the response is reinforced only part of the time. Learned behaviors are acquired more slowly with partial reinforcement, but the response is more resistant toextinction.
