b. produces less resistance to extinction than partial reinforcement does.

b. produces less resistance to extinction than partial reinforcement does.
Answer feedback: Technically, a continuous reinforcement schedule is the same as a fixed-ratio (FR) 1 schedule of reinforcement. Under such a schedule, each response produces the reinforcer. As many previous exercises have shown, the schedule produces a moderate rate of response with few, typically brief pauses.
