A benefit of using a generalized reinforcer is
It can be used to reinforce a wide range of behaviors
Weak verbal skills make it more likely that
Delayed stimuli will not function as reinforcement
Allowing individuals choice in academic tasks or routines generally
Increases appropriate behavior
A behavior is likely the result of rule following (instructional control) if
A single instance of reinforcement results in a large increase in behavior
A behavior is likely the result of rule following (instructional control) if
There is no identifiable immediate consequence
Allowing individuals choice in academic tasks or routines generally
Reduces disruptive behavior
A benefit of using a generalized reinforcer is
It does not depend on any one state of deprivation
A behavior is likely the result of rule following (instructional control) if
The frequency of behavior changes due changes in antecedents
One problem with a delay in reinforcer delivery is that
Behavior that is temporally closer may be reinforced
Which is most likely to be an effective use of reinforcement?
Immediate delivery of cool water following exercise
A benefit of using a generalized reinforcer is
It is minimally affected by satitation
Allowing individuals choice in academic tasks or routines generally
Has similar effects to allowing choice of reinforcers
A student is often off-task and talking to peers. During after-school work, the student works steadily with minimal teacher attention. To improve his classroom behavior you should
