Quotes

  • eantoshkinhas quoted5 years ago
    In order to maintain an already-learned behavior with some degree of reliability, it is not only not
    necessary to reinforce it every time; it is vital that you do not reinforce it on a regular basis but instead switch to using reinforcement only occasionally, and on a random or unpredictable basis.
  • eantoshkinhas quoted5 years ago
    A reinforcer is anything that, occurring in conjunction with an act, tends to increase the probability that
    the act will occur again.
  • нурсhas quoted7 years ago
    People, of course, work endlessly for money, which is after all only a conditioned reinforcer, a
    token for the things it can buy—even, or perhaps especially, people who have already earned more money
    than they can actually spend, who have accordingly become addicted to the conditioned reinforcer.
