Document Summary
Shaping is an art" and a balancing act. The individual i. e some individuals are easier to train than others. Need to observe the existing behavioral repertoire. You want to know what you are dealing with and what the behavioral repertoire consists of. Clearly determine what the final (goal) behavior will look like. i. e. girl holding cookie and teacher not letting fetish get it. She controls access to the reinforcers by calling her name before she gets it. Girl also closes hand, so that dog can"t get cookie. She expected the cookie and it was taken away from her. Pulling dog back by the leash while not allowing her to have the cookie is punishing her. Stopping her from getting cookie/moving her away/leaving her for a few seconds this is called negative punishment. She punished fetish for ignoring the recall cue. Time out/taking away access to any reinforcers for a few seconds.
