True or false: continuous reinforcement occurs when a response is reinforced only some of the time.

FALSE

Explanation:

Continuous reinforcement is explained by psychology as a continuation of the same response to behavior each time it occurs. So in a continuous reinforcement scheme every time a behavior occurs, it will have a repeated response to stimulate learning faster. This is widely used in the education of children.

For example, if a child misbehaves, he or she will be grounded. When the behavior repeats, the punishment will be applied again. Thus, the child will associate that behavior with punishment and will change their behavior. In this case, the punishment is the continuous reinforcement.
