【 摘 要 】

Studies suggest that the response rate of humans under FI may be affected by the type of reinforcer. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the type of scheduled consequence for humans under FI would affect the time required to reach a quantitative stability criterion and whether stability would be maintained after being reached. Fifteen college students were exposed to a FI 30 s for 10 hours (30 min sessions) under two conditions with different consequences for responses (points vs. money). The results suggest that the type of reinforcer is not sufficient to affect the time required to reach the stability criterion, although its maintenance seems to be influenced by this variable.
