A peaceful

christmas dinner

Presented by PERSON for COMPANY

Operant Conditioning

Cousin Maryann is such a cute young lady. unfortunately, she hasn't learned to say please and thank you. Grandma gets really snappy with the young children when they forget their manners. Maryann needs to be ready to act appropriately real soon.

Spontaneous Behavior

The spontaneous behavior in this situation is MaryAnn not using her manners. She hasn't yet learned them. We will use conditioning to have her learn her manners.

Spontaneous Behavior

Positive or negative reinforcement

Positive Reinforcement will work good in this situation because we want to have her use her manners. We will reinforce her behavior of using her manners by giving her a fruit snack after we tell her "Good job!!" after every time she correctly uses her manners.

Immediate or delayed reinforcement

Immediate Reinforcement will be used because MaryAnn will be immediately told "Good job!!" and then given her fruit snack as a treat.

Immediate or delayed reinforcement

Schedule of reinforcement

The schedule of reinforcement is Fixed-Interval because she is reinforced for her behavior after a fixed time. The fixed time would be once she says her manners when it is appropriate to do so.

Schedule of reinforcement

Thank

You!!!

primary or secondary reinforcement

Primary Reinforcement is being used because the fruit snacks are satisfying a biological need and naturally reinforcing her behavior because food is a natural reinforcer along with warmth and water.
