Definitions:

Reinforcement Schedule

Giving out rewards for good behavior at certain intervals.

Fixed-Ratio Reinforcement

A schedule of reinforcement where a response is rewarded only after a specified number of responses, promoting a high and stable response rate.

Variable-Ratio Reinforcement

A reinforcement schedule where a response is rewarded after an unpredictable number of responses, typically used to encourage repetitive behavior.

Fixed-Interval Reinforcement

A schedule of reinforcement where a response is rewarded only after a specified time has elapsed, leading to a pattern of responses following the passage of each interval.
