In a geometric sequence where r and gt 1 the terms always increase.?
No, they do not. If the first term is negative, they always decrease.
What does it means to have a correlation in a scatter plot?
A correlation exists in a scatter plot if there is a general trend in the outputs as inputs increase. If the outputs generally increase in value, then there is a positive correlation. If the outputs generally decrease in value, then there is a negative correlation.
Is a negative divided by a negative a positive number?
negative times negative is positive negative divided by a negative is a postive negative times a positive is a negative negative divided by a positive is a negative
Is the time elapsed and the number of words typed negative or positive correlation?
It would be a positive correlation. As the time increases, the number of words typed would also increase.
What does negative times a negative equal?
A negative times a negative equals a positive.
Is punishment a reinforcer?
Punishment is not a reinforcer. there is Negative Punishment and Positive Punishment, and also Negative Reinforcement and Positive Reinforcement.*Negative Punishment is a consequence withdrawn following a response that causes a behavior to occur with less frequency.*Negative Reinforcement is a consequence withdrawn following a response that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency.*Positive Punishment is a consequence delivered following a response that causes a behavior to occur with less frequency.*Positive Reinforcement is a consequence delivered following a response that causes a behavior to occur with greater frequency.
What is the difference between reinforcement and feedback?
Feedback and reinforcement are important concepts in learning. Feedback involves to provide information about their responses to learners, whereas reinforcement is a tendency of the learner to make a specific response again. Feedback can be positive, negative or neutral; reinforcement is either positive (increases the response) or negative (decreases the response). Feedback is almost always considered external while reinforcement can be external or instrinsic (i.e., generated by the individual).
What increases the likelihood that a behavior will occur again by removing an unpleasant stimulus?
You are describing 'negative reinforcement'. People very often confuse negative reinforcement with punishment. Punishment is clearly not a reinforcer in the context of operant conditioning. Negative reinforcement is. The frequency of a behavior goes up when that behavior results in the removal of a noxious stimulus. It would work for me.
What is negative reinforcement in slabs and beams?
the reinforcement which provided at negative moment developed section.
How can negative reinforcement be positive?
I think it is called negative reinforcement because it is only negative only 2 negatives make a positive
Positive reinforcement and negative punishment are?
Different in that positive reinforcement increases a behavior and negative punishment decreases a behavior
What is reinforcement effect?
The reinforcement effect is the result reinforcement on behavior. It is used to study the success rate of positive, negative, and partial reinforcement.
Do people usually look forward to receiving negative reinforcement?
People very often confuse negative reinforcement with punishment
How are positive and negative reinforcement similar and how are they different?
Positive reinforcement involves adding a stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior recurring, while negative reinforcement involves removing a stimulus for the same purpose. Both are ways to increase the likelihood of a behavior, but positive reinforcement adds a stimulus while negative reinforcement takes one away.
Are seat belt buzzers a negative or positive reinforcement?
Negative reinforcement. It's buzzing to tell you something is wrong. If you got a reward for having your seatbelt on, it would be positive reinforcement.
When a response is followed by the removal of an unpleasant event?
Negative reinforcement is the term used to describe the removal of an unpleasant stimulus in response to a behavior in an effort to increase the liklihood that the behavior will be repeated. Example: a parent stops nagging when the teenager starts mowing the lawn.
How are positive and negative reinforcement alike?
Positive and negative reinforcement both call attention to a situation. For many, negative attention is more desirable than no attention. Negative reinforcement is generally quicker than positive, yet the positive is so very important for development including self esteem.
