Provide an example of a DRH, DRL, and DRO schedule.

What will be an ideal response?


DRH: Reinforcement is made contingent on a high rate of responding. For example, a 10-page term paper that is due within a short period of time. DRL: Reinforcement is made contingent on a low rate of responding. A period of time must elapse without a response being made, then the first response at the end of the interval is then reinforced. For example, flooding the engine of your car. DRO: Reinforcement is made contingent in the absence of a particular response for a specified period of time. For example, no acting out in a classroom for a particular period of time.
