Answer:

Abolitionists opposed slavery for several reasons. For may people in the North, the stronghold of the abolitionist movement, it was a moral imperative: slavery was a sin and it was necessary to end that sinful practice. Such arguments were popular thanks to the Second Great Awakening. They also wanted social emancipation of the black people and an end to segregation and racism, measures of American society´s progress. Some events like the outrageous Suprem Court´s Dred Scott decision that stated that slaves were not US citizens and thus could not sue their owners in courts, helped galvanize anti-slavery feelings in the North. Finally, there are economic aspects to be considered. Slavery was the agriculture-centered Southern economy´s engine; tobacco, cotton and sugar farming had contributed enormously to American prosperity. The North became more industrial and had a more diversified economy base on free labor. That´s a major difference and a key factor in the contradictions between North and South.

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 fixed number of desired responses.

The variable ratio schedule gives a reinforcement after a changing number of desired responses.

The fixed interval schedule gives a reinforcement after a constant amount of time.

The variable interval schedule gives a reinforcement after a variable amount of time.

In the example, the rats get a pellet of food, so we're talking about a reinforcement. They don't get a reward EVERY TIME 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 NUMBER of times, we're talking about a ratio schedule. Finally, the number of times they need to press the bar to get a reward VARIES from trial to trial so this is a Variable Ratio Schedule.
