Herrnstein's hyperbola

If I wanted to know whether a student was more likely to listen to recordings or attend the lecture, the best measure would be the:

• rate of attending the lecture (number of lectures attended per week)

• rate of listening to the lecture recording (number of lectures recordings listened to per week)

• ratio of lecture attendance to recording use

If I wanted to know how many lectures per week students attended, the best measure would be the:

• rate of attending the lecture (number of lectures attended per week)

• rate of listening to the lecture recording (number of lectures recordings listened to per week)

• ratio of lecture attendance to recording use

An effective reinforcer for attending a lecture would be...

The curve with the higher k value is

• green

• yellow

• k is the same for the two curves

The curve that belongs to the experiment looking at multi-choice answering is ___ and the curve for the experiment looking at essay answering is ___

• yellow, green

• green, yellow

• k should be the same for both experiments so these curves don't fit

These curves have the same k value. Which curve has the higher Re value?

• yellow

• blue

• Re is the same for the two curves

These curves have the same k value. The ___ curve is from the experiment with the talkative friend, the ___ curve is from the experiment without the talkative friend.

• yellow, blue

• blue, yellow

• Re should be the same for the two curves, so the graphs aren't right for this experiment
