Answer:

Nathan's difficulty reflects negative transfer.

Explanation:

Negative transfer is the interference of previous knowledge in something you are trying to learn now. It commonly happens when you've learned and practiced something for a long time, to the point it becomes an automatic action or response. For instance, people who are used to driving manual cars find it difficult to drive automatic ones because their natural reaction to shifting gears are no longer needed. That is the case with Nathan. His previous learning of golf is now obstructing the new learning. He is so accustomed to swinging the golf club a certain way that he ends up swinging the bat the same way.

Answer:

Variable Ratio  Schedule

Explanation:

First, there are two different types of reinforcement:

  • Positive
  • Negative

The positive reinforcement applies a stimulus to increase the frequency of the desirable variable.

The negative reinforcement removes a stimulus to increase the frequency of the desirable variable.

However, the positive reinforcement divides itself in different types:

  • Continuous
  • Partial

A continuous reinforcement schedule gives us a reinforcement every time we engaged in the desired conduct.

On the other side, the partial reinforcement schedule  also divides itself in

  • Ratio
  • Interval

And these divide themselves in fixed or variable.

  • The fixed ratio schedule gives a reinforcement after a <u>fixed number</u> of desired responses.
  • The variable ratio schedule gives a reinforcement after a <u>changing</u> <u>number</u> of desired responses.

  • The fixed interval schedule gives a reinforcement after a <u>constant amount of time.</u>
  • The variable interval schedule gives a reinforcement after a <u>variable amount of time.</u>

In the example, the rats get a pellet of food, so we're talking about a reinforcement. They <u>don't get a reward EVERY TIME</u> they press the bar so we are not talking about a continuous reinforcement but a partial reinforcement. Since the rats press the bar and get a reward after certain <u>NUMBER</u> of times, we're talking about a ratio schedule. Finally, the number of times they need to press the bar to get a reward <u>VARIES</u> from trial to trial so this is a Variable Ratio Schedule.
