Fred's parents are reinforcing his negative behaviors on a "partial reinforcement schedule".
<h3>What is a partial reinforcement schedule?</h3>
The majority of reinforcement schedules are partial, and they can be either fixed or variable in terms of the number of replies they reward, or they can be interval or ratio-based in terms of the amount of time between responses. The number of answers or the interval between reinforcements is fixed and unchanging under a fixed schedule.
The reaction is only reinforced sometimes in partial or intermittent reinforcement. With fractional support, learned behaviors are acquired more gradually, but the reaction is more resistant to eradication.
Although you initially used a regular calendar, it may not always be practicable to reinforce each and every instance of the behavior. In the end, you can decide to go to a fractional calendar where you only provide help when a lot of reactions occur or when a lot of time has passed.
