In behavioral therapy, which of the following best describes the effect of random reinforcement on a client's behavior?

Rationale: A. Random reinforcement (also known as variable-ratio reinforcement) results in slower acquisition of a behavior but makes the behavior more resistant to extinction, meaning it continues longer even after the reinforcement stops. B. This describes continuous reinforcement, not random reinforcement. C. Random (variable-ratio) reinforcement is actually more effective than fixed-ratio for long-term maintenance because it keeps the behavior consistent due to unpredictability. D. Rapid behavior increase with quick extinction is associated with continuous reinforcement, not random reinforcement.
