through association with a primary reinforcer.

✔✔ Reinforcement schedules, such as fixed or variable, impact how quickly and consistently a

behavior is learned and maintained.




Why is it important to select appropriate reinforcers for individuals?


✔✔ Choosing the right reinforcers ensures that the individual is motivated to engage in the

desired behavior.




What is response cost, and how does it relate to reinforcement?
