Answer:

Intermittent

Explanation:

There are two types of schedules of reinforcement

Continuous: Where a behavior is rewarded after the required behavior is performed.

Intermittent: Where a behavior is rewarded but not every time that the behavior is done.

There are four types of Intermittent schedule of reinforcement

Fixed-Ratio (FR) Schedule.

Fixed Interval (FI) Schedule.

Variable-Ratio (VR) schedule.

Variable-Interval (VI) schedule.

Gambling falls into the category of Variable-Ratio (VR) schedule where the response is rewarded after unpredictable number of responses.
