A schedule of reinforcement in which each instance of a particular response is reinforced.
Continuous reinforcement (crf) schedule
The withholding of a reinforcer following a previously reinforced response, with the effect that the response is weakened.
Extinction (operant conditioning)
Presenting a conditioned stimulus (CS) without further pairings with an unconditioned stimulus, with the effect that the CS loses the ability to elicit the conditioned response.
Extinction (respondent conditioning)
A schedule of reinforcement in which a reinforcer is presented only if a response occurs for a fixed period of time.
Fixed-duration (FD) schedule
A schedule of reinforcement in which a reinforcer is presented only if a response occurs for a fixed period of time.
Fixed-interval (FI) schedule
A schedule of reinforcement in which a reinforcer is presented following a fixed number of instances of a particular response.
Fixed-ratio (FR) schedules
The maintenance of a behaviour by reinforcing it only occasionally rather than every time it occurs.
Intermittent reinforcement
A rule specifying which occurrence of a given behaviour, if any, will be reinforced.
Schedule of reinforcement
A schedule of reinforcement in which the reinforcer occurs only if the response occurs for an interval of time that changes unpredictably from one reinforcement to the next.
Variable-duration (VD) schedule
A schedule of reinforcement in which the reinforcer occurs only if the response occurs after an interval of time that varies unpredictably from one reinforcement to the next.
Variable-interval (VI) schedule
A schedule of reinforcement in which a reinforcer occurs only after a certain number of responses, where the number varies unpredictably from one reinforcement to the next.
Variable-ratio (VR) schedule
