Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The provision of free coffee and donuts at a specific time each day (10:30 am) indicates that the reinforcement is provided on a fixed interval schedule. This means that the behavior of going to the place where the donuts are is only reinforced after a fixed interval of time (24 hours) has elapsed.
