The Answer is Reinforcement is contingent upon the first instance of a specific response occurring within a limited period of time following the expiration of a fixed interval of time.For example, waiting for a bus at a bus stop on a regular city route is probably reinforced on an approximation of an FI/LH schedule.The response is going to or being at the bus stop.The fixed interval is the length of time between bus arrivals (such as every 15 minutes).The limited hold is the amount of time the bus waits at the bus stop after it arrives.Any plausible example that is not in the chapter is acceptable.
