Can a employer make their employees work 7 days a week as a punishment?
An employer is never in a position to 'punish' an employee, and is in big legal trouble if he does it and the employee can prove it in court. No law restricts an employer's right to discipline employees with schedule changes. Employers face no court imposed liability for doing so. An employer can't 'make' his employees do anything. The employer can state the work assignment, and then each employee is free to choose among three options in response: 1). Comply, 2). Negotiate, 3). Walk.
What is more common continuous or partial reinforcement?
partial reinforcement i reinforcing a response part of the time.
What is a response contingent reinforcement?
Contingencies of reinforcement are consequences that increases, maintains, or reduces the probability that the behaviour will be repeatedPositive reinforcement: when the introduction of a consequence increases or maintains the probably/frequency of a behaviour > When you receive a bonus for your hard work it makes you want to work hard again to get the bonusPunishment: when a consequence decreases the frequency or future probability of a specific behaviour; usually an introduction of something unfavourable > when you get a demotion for doing failing to complete your job assignments, it makes you stop procrastinating on your assignmentNegative reinforcement: when the removalof a consequence increases or maintains the frequency or future probability of a specific behaviour > when your mom stops complaining and nagging because you cleaned your room, it would make you want to continue cleaning your room so you don't have to deal with her naggingExtinction: when the target behaviour decreases because no consequences/reinforcements follows it > When managers stop congratulating employees for their great performance, employees tend to slack offWhen trying to motivate someone, you shoudl use positive reinforcement for positive outcomes and extinction for unfavourable outcomes because negative reinforcement and consequences creates negative emotions in people.
How are ratio reinforcement schedules different from interval reinforcement schedules?
Ratio reinforcement schedules deliver reinforcement based on the number of responses emitted by the individual, while interval reinforcement schedules deliver reinforcement based on the passage of time and the first response after a specified time interval. Ratio schedules tend to generate higher response rates compared to interval schedules.
Removing something that leads to a DECREASE in a response is what?
Negative reinforcement
What is it called when a subject is rewarded for a response?
This is called positive reinforcement. Positive reinforcement involves rewarding a behavior to increase the likelihood of it being repeated in the future.

Is punishment a reinforcer?
Punishment is not a reinforcer. there is Negative Punishment and Positive Punishment, and also Negative Reinforcement and Positive Reinforcement.*Negative Punishment is a consequence withdrawn following a response that causes a behavior to occur with less frequency.*Negative Reinforcement is a consequence withdrawn following a response that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency.*Positive Punishment is a consequence delivered following a response that causes a behavior to occur with less frequency.*Positive Reinforcement is a consequence delivered following a response that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency.
The reinforcement of each and every correct response is?
The reinforcement of each and every correct response is essential for increasing the likelihood of the desired behavior being repeated in the future. It strengthens the connection between the behavior and the positive outcome, making it more likely that the individual will continue to engage in that behavior.
What produces the most steady rate of response?
A continuous reinforcement schedule typically produces the most steady rate of response, as the reinforcement is delivered every time the desired behavior occurs. This leads to a consistent and predictable pattern of behavior.
