What is the advantage of using generalized conditioned reinforcers?

Group of answer choices

They are less susceptible to satiation, because they can be exchanged for a wide variety of other reinforcers.

They are easier for children to obtain than other forms of reinforcement.

They are negative reinforcers, which are more powerful than positive reinforcers.

None of these are advantages of generalized reinforcers.

back 48

They are less susceptible to satiation, because they can be exchanged for a wide variety of other reinforcers.

front 49

Which is true?

Group of answer choices

A. Unconditioned negative reinforcers must be related to our inherited capacity to respond to them (for example, aversive, painful stimuli), and conditioned negative reinforcers must be stimuli that were originally neutral events that acquired their effects through previous pairing with existing negative reinforcers.

B. Conditioned negative reinforcers must be related to our inherited capacity to respond to them (for example, aversive, painful stimuli), and unconditioned negative reinforcers must be stimuli that were originally neutral events that acquired their effects through previous pairing with existing negative reinforcers.

C. Joey forgot to clean his room before leaving for school. When he returned from school in the afternoon, he quickly cleaned his room before his mother came home to avoid a reprimand from her. A reprimand, in this case, can be considered an unconditioned negative reinforcer.

Ineffective methods for thinning schedules of reinforcement are: gradually increasing the response ratio or the duration of the time interval.

Ratio strain can result from abrupt decreases in ratio requirements when moving from denser to thinner reinforcement schedules.
