Continuous Reinforcement is when the desired response is reinforced every time it occurs, therefore learning occurs rapidly. Praising the child directly at the moment results in a probability of the action repeating again.
Partial (intermittent) reinforcement is when responses are sometimes reinforced, sometimes though they are not.
Fixed-ratio schedules are meant to reinforce behavior after a set number of responses
Variable- ratio schedules provide reinforcers after an unpredictable number of responses.
Fixed-interval schedules reinforce the first response after a fixed time period.
Variable-interval schedules reinforce the first response after varying time intervals.
