Episode 273 - Schedule Thinning and FCR

FCR is amazing and all, but what can be done about the that dense schedule of reinforcement? This week we explore what the research has to say about thinning that schedule using good old discrimination cues and a boatload of gumption. Well, mostly the first part. Plus, a fabulous recent summary of everything you wanted to know about the topic courtesy of Kranak and Brown. Think of us as the audiobook version of their recent article.

This episode is available for 1.0 LEARNING CEU.
