wow u hav his number?
Nope. Email. Me and my friend begged him for it after the pathways lecture.
you should ask him about the order of the stimulus and response in operant conditioning ;)
Haha. Nar I'm 100% sure on that one. Even my teacher whose been an assessor for 15 years said it was right. And she has never been wrong before. Don't wanna bug him or waste his time haha. Trust me it's definitely right. I would basically bet all my money on it.
yeah, but I meant so that we can sway the people who disagree.
but good point, he probably is very busy atm.

Then it can only make sense for the exact opposite of this to be that HARDEST to extinguish.
Which is, Variable Interval.

At the end of the day it would cause too much controversy if they didn't allow both because there's so much debate on it. So obviously they have to just allow both. That's the way the chief assessor is looking at it so just follow that, he's the one who writes all the answers anyway so we're fine.

Doesn't really matter. I'm going with variable interval anyway.

technically the easiest to extinguish is continuous. the exact opposite of continuous is partial. and ergo you're back in the same boat. (I know you're talking about partial schedules, but being annoying is fun :) )

Guys! I have it figured out.
The easiest schedule to extinguish, is..

NO SCHEDULE

My justification being, if there is ONE and only ONE reinforcement given in the first place(thus no repeated reinforcement for behaviour), it will be incredibly easy to extinguish!

SUCK ON THAT, VCAA!

but the behaviour usually isn't learned with one reinforcement.

don't know if this helps but found on a trial exam variable interval has the slowest acquisition.
