KEY Note:
CRF: is used to strengthen behavior, primarily during the initial stages of learning
new behaviors.
Example(You have a friend you can call or text, the friend responds more to text messages than
phone calls, the organism will allocate or CHOOSE which schedule of reinforcement)
Matching Law
● Matching law is used with Concurrent Schedule of Reinforcement
● Matching law states: given two concurrently available response alternative
(choices),individuals will distribute their behavior in the same proportion that reinforcers
are distributed among those alternatives.
Multiple Schedules of Reinforcement: AKA MULT
● SD is present (stimulus is present as long as schedule is in place)
● 2 or more basic schedules of reinforcement in an alternating usually random
sequences
● Occur successively or independently
● Patterns of responding are still the same as in a Multiple schedule of
reinforcement as in Basic schedules of reinforcement (e.g ratio schedules will
produce higher rates of responding whereas interval schedules will produce
lower rates of responding)
Example( A teacher says it’s time to work in small groups and uses a FR 5 and at
home the student has a tutor and the tutor uses a FI 15)
Chained Schedule of Reinforcement:AKA Chain
● SD is present
● 2 or more basic schedules of reinforcement
● Occur successively
● Always Occur in SPECIFIC ORDER
● Conditioned Reinforcement for responding in the first element in a chain is the presentation for the
second element.
Alternative and Conjunctive are the Alternative and Conjunctive are the
only 2 schedules that REQUIRE either a only 2 schedules that REQUIRE both a
RATIO or INTERVAL schedule. RATIO and INTERVAL schedule.
One condition has to be met before Both conditions have to be met before
reinforcement is delivered. contacting reinforcement
