question 85

Multiple Choice

In the following proof, which justification is correct for line 7? $\begin{array}{llcc} \text {(1) \( (x) \{[\mathrm{C} x \cdot(\mathrm{D} x \vee \mathrm{E} x) ] \supset \mathrm{F} x\} \) } & & \text { Premise} \\ \text { (2) \( (\exists y) (E y * \sim \mathrm{Fy}) \) } & \text {\(/(\exists x) \sim C x\) }& \text { Premise/Conclusion }\\ \text {(3) \( \mathrm{Ea} * \sim \mathrm{Fa} \) } && \text { 2 EI }\\ \text { (4) \( [\mathrm{Ca} \cdot(\mathrm{Da} \cup \mathrm{Ea}) ] D \mathrm{Fa} \) } && \text {\( 1 \mathrm{UI} \) }\\ \text {(5) \( -\mathrm{Fa} \) } && \text {\( 3 \mathrm{Simp} \) }\\ \text { (6) \( \sim[\mathrm{Ca} \cdot(\mathrm{Da} \vee \mathrm{Ea}) ] \) } && \text { \( 4,5 \mathrm{MT} \) }\\ \text { (7) \( \sim \mathrm{Ca} v \sim(\mathrm{Da} v \mathrm{Ea}) ] \) } &\\\end{array}$

Definitions:

Fixed-interval

In operant conditioning, a schedule of reinforcement where the first response is rewarded only after a specified amount of time has elapsed.

Variable-ratio

A reinforcement schedule in operant conditioning where a response is reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses, enhancing the robustness of the behavior.

Variable-ratio

A schedule of reinforcement where a response is reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses, leading to a high and steady response rate.

Fixed-ratio

A schedule of reinforcement where a response is reinforced only after a specified number of responses, often used in behavior analysis.
