Mike trained his dog to ""shake"" using a fixed-interval schedule of reinforcement. jake trained his dog to shake using a variable-ratio schedule.. nikki trained her dog to shake on a fixed-ratio schedule. from which dog do you expect steadier response rates and greater resistance to extinction?

Nikki, training her dog in a fixed ratio schedule.

Explanation:

The fixed-ratio schedule has a stedier response, because the dog has to repeat what he is learning (his response) a set number of times to get the reinforcement object or action. He understands that he has to do the shake multiple times before he gets a treat or a compliment. The fixed-interval might be too abstract for the dog, and he would only start doing right before the next time he will get the reinforcement, and the variable ratio might make the dog quit doing too early.

Jake's dog will have the steadier response rates and has greater resistance to extinction.

Explanation:

These are known as the stages of reinforcement, which are specific rules determining  when the behavior will be rewarded via desired stimulus.

Let's break the terms ratio and interval down:

Now let's break down each example:

According to these definitions, it can be concluded that Jake's variable-ratio schedule method is the best to ensure the dog shakes and the behavior does not become extinct.
