Continuous intermittent rein. Reinforcing a desire result every time

Results slower acquisitions but much greater resistance to extinction than does continuous reinforcement

Continuous – reinforcer follows every response

Fixed interval: responses after specific time period is reinforced

Variable interval – likes on ig fixed ratio – can't be changed with how much you check

fixed num of responses must occur before reinforcer

Variable ratio

Varying number of responses must occur before reinforcer

Latent learning – a kind of observational learning
