Document Summary
Chapter 11- getting a new sequence of behaviours to occur with behaviour chaining. An example about steve not being a good golf player because he didn"t have a preputt routine like the other skilled players. So he concluded that his inconsistent preputt routine could be contributing to inconsistent putting. So the first step to establishing a consistent sequence of responses during his preputt routine was to list the specific steps that he wanted to follow on each occasion. There as follows: (7 routine steps) led him to win a game, yay. Behaviour chain, also called a stimulus-response chain- is a consistent sequence of stimuli and responses that occur closely to each other in time and in which the last response is typically followed by a reinforcer. In a behaviour chain, each response produces a stimulus that serves as an sd for the next response (a conditioned reinforcer for previous response)
