Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A concurrent schedule typically involves two or more schedules of reinforcement that are presented simultaneously, with different responses required for each schedule. A Skinner box with two manipulanda would be the most appropriate setup to study choice behavior in a concurrent schedule, as it allows for the presentation of two different schedules of reinforcement at the same time, and the subject can choose which response to make based on the reinforcement contingencies.
