Answer:

Variable ratio

Explanation:

First, there are two different types of reinforcement:

  • Positive
  • Negative

<u>The positive reinforcement</u> applies a stimulus to increase the frequency of the desirable variable.

<u>The negative reinforcement</u> removes a stimulus to increase the frequency of the desirable variable.

However, the positive reinforcement divides itself in different types:

  • Continuous
  • Partial

A <u>continuous reinforcemen</u>t schedule gives us a reinforcement every time we engaged in the desired conduct.

On the other side, the <u>partial reinforcement schedule</u> doesn't give us a reinforcement every time, but 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 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>

<u>So, in other words, ratio has to do with number of responses while interval has to do with amount of time. </u>

<u />

In the example, <u>you don't know</u> how many lottery tickets you must buy to get a winning ticket. But technically, <u>if you keep buying, you will get a winner one </u><u>(after an unknown number of attempts)</u>.

Therefore, buying scratch-lottery tickets is a reinforced according to a variable ratio schedule.

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

I enjoyed how I was able to actually see how the foundations of the US government came from people who weren't perfect. The musical doesn't try to show them in a perfect light where they are all saints who are to be praised at all times. No, it shows that they made mistakes and that this government was created with perfection, but it has allowed so many people to influence the world we live in today.

Hope this helps!
