Dr. Friman’s conceptualization of learning
learning = repetition + contrast
contrast (as it relates to learning)
change in experience:
- quality (determines direction of learning)
- pleasant (reinforcement)
- unpleasant (punishment)
- quantity (determines need for repetition)
- large change (less repetition)
- small change (more repetition)
sleep deprivation is correlated with
- ADHD
- depression
- anger outbursts
toileting readiness
- physical
- bladder
- language
- instructional
- proprioceptive readiness
- emotional-social readiness
physical readiness (as it relates to toiling)
- raise and lower pants
- pincer grasp
- fully ambulatory
- sit independently
Dr. Friman’s tolieting program
- drink
- undress
- play
- pay

- DRA
treatment of defiance in older children
job-based grounding
treatment of toddler misbehavior
time-in and time-out
