you know, I have heard that schedules of reinforcement aren't on the study design anymore.
but that could be wrong.
i might leave vcenotes for the night and hit some sleep. but i am checking that out tomorrow morning... that would make me so happy. the confusion of it is pretty frustrating and it's one of the main things i tend to slip up on in MC.

Lol its on the course.
And i strongly think this year they will ask questions bout it.
both in the MC and one in the SA.
they might ask something like .....
How could you use different schedules of reinforcement to train a dog to fetch?.
or ....
explain which partial schedule of reinforcement brings about the fastest acquisition , and which partial schedule of reinforcement is least likely to be extinguished.
Now I think if that question came up ... maybe 10% of the state would get FULL marks.
