Fixed-interval
Fixed-interval refers to a schedule for reinforcing the first response after a fixed period of time has passed since the prior reinforcement . This schedule usually produces a scallop pattern of responding where people tend to pause after a reinforcer and then to gradually increase their response rate until they are working at a high rate at the moment they receive the next reinforcer.
