  • Vollmer and Bourret's discovery that the proportion of two- versus three-point shots attempted by basketball players matches the proportion of points obtained suggests that shot-making in basketball is to some extent reinforced on a variable ratio (VR) schedule.
  • This schedule tends to produce a high and steady rate of responding, which in this case relates to the players attempting shots in the game.
