Answer:

Variable Interval

Step-by-step explanation:

Reinforcement is delivered after an unpredictable number of responses (e.g., after 1, 4, 5, and 9 responses).

Result is high and steady response rate.

Answer:

fixed interval

Step-by-step explanation:

A fixed interval scheme refers to a reinforcement scheme in which an activity is rewarded only when a certain period of time is over. In the fixed interval scheme, there is a large amount of activity always occurring simultaneously at the end of a time interval. This kind of scam is very common in games, especially slot machines that reward gamblers with cash.
