Answer:

variable interval

Explanation:

The variable interval of reinforcement means that the time of the reinforcement or positive response is unpredictable and more randomized, so the subject can't know exactly when the reaction will come.

The positive reinforcement is very important for human behavior and it can come in various time intervals. A variable interval schedule of reinforcement is the opposite of a fixed interval schedule, that is always known and delivered at a predictable time.
