The most effective kind of conditioning is 'random reward' where the reward
is not guaranteed, but is based on random chance with the reward becoming
less and less likely over time or the behaviour needed to get it becoming
more difficult (but still with a random element) , and the desired behaviour
increasing proportionately.**

Heh. I think this is why some men will continue to date utterly irrational women. They are hooked on the variable response. <g>
