Yeah what hpak said.
As i said before, my teacher told us to know the definition for insight:
The more trial and error experiences one has, the more chance of an insightful experience occurring.

Hi all,
Is the operant conditioning response voluntary, involuntary, or both?
I have noticed some sources say it is involuntary while others say it may involve both.

Thanks for reading  :)

the response is voluntary.
i've heard it to be both, but no, in operant conditioning it's safer to say 'voluntary' only.

i thought it was both as well?

and some last minute clarification please :)
1) whats quickest to extinguish, VR or VI?
2) does random sampling eliminate participant variables? i remember reading it in some exam
class of 2010!

1) VI i think
2) Yes because they are evenly distributed

1) Variable interval is faster to extinguish then Variable Ratio

2) Strictly speaking, no. What random sampling does is to attempt to ensure that your sample is a fair representation of your population. Eliminating participant variables is generally done by using a repeated measures design.

whats quickest to extinguish, FR or FI?

and do we need to know response cost? or do we just refer to it as punishment?

Fixed ratio extinguishes faster than fixed interval, I think. Although I don't think there's a huge difference

And no, you don't need to know response cost, but if you say "response cost" for the form of punishment whereby a positive stimulus is taken away, you'll still be given the mark (just make sure you don't say 'response cost' for the addition of a negative stimulus.)

variable interval is not faster to extinguish than variable ratio. VI is the hardest to extinguish and produces the steadiest (but slowest) responses of a long period of time.
