Question

what is a continuous reinforcer? does not go away quickly because it has been done a long time. something that is given every time you do a specific behavior. something is is given for a long period of time.

Explanation:

To determine the correct definition of a continuous reinforcer, we analyze each option:

• The second option matches the definition: a continuous reinforcer is provided every time a specific behavior occurs (continuous reinforcement schedule).
• The third option describes the duration of the reinforcer being given, not the contingency (link to behavior occurrence) of a continuous reinforcer.

Answer:

Something that is given every time you do a specific behavior.
