The
variable ratio, partial reinforcement schedules
programmed into slot machines maintain
a very high and persistent response rate,
and many online environments do the same
thing. For instance, that kind of reward schedule
is probably one reason young people
check their smartphones so frequently for
status updates or new text messages. ‘Internet
addiction disorder’ may not be the right
term, but the problems are very real and
those students who are unable to control
their online activities, whose grades drop
and whose relationships with friends and
family sour, definitely need help
