Document Summary
That was bad! : reprimands also include a xed stare and, sometimes, a rm grasp, conditioned punisher: a stimulus that is a punisher as a result of having been paired with another punisher. It is a mistake to offer punishment as an overly simplistic explanation of a decrease in behaviour when the punisher does not follow the behaviour immediately. Try to identify and eliminate the current sds for the undesirable behaviour. The parental behaviours characteristic of being in a bad mood constituted an sdp: do not confuse an sdp with an s . Consider the example of a parent deducting 25 cents from the child"s allowance. As a result of this contingency, the swearing decreased. On the other hand, if the parent simply ignored the child when swearing (i. e. , withheld their attention as a reinforcer), and the swearing decreased, the sight of the parent would be a s for swearing.
