Yes! I understand the intermittent reinforcement schedules a little better. In fact when I first started reading about variable-ratio schedules, a light bulb went off and I said out loud "Like slot machines!!" before I even read that as an example in the book lol Those wily casinos using psychology against their hapless patrons! It makes so much sense too. That variable-ratio reinforcements are so hard to extinguish. Those casinos count on that, don't they?

I LOVE THIS STUFF!
