Describe a fixed-interval schedule of reinforcement.
Answer
- Fixed-interval schedule of reinforcement is a type of reinforcement whereby the first response is reinforced only after a specified period of time has elapsed. This type of reinforcement causes a gradual increase in response when reinforcement time nears.
Explanation:
Fixed-interval schedules is an important tool in teaching new behaviors, and though some of these schedules are natural, others are artificially created by rewards. Example. Giving allowance to a child every Sunday as long as her bedroom is clean. This reinforcement however means the child may not clean her room until Saturday night because she knows reinforcement is near.
