Introduction to Psychology 1/IPSY102/Operant conditioning and observational learning/Reflections

Think about a specific behavior of a person or pet who you know that you would either like to encourage or discourage. Describe a program of behavior modification using selective reinforcement and/or punishment that would change that person or animal’s behavior. Post your example to the Behaviorism: Operant Conditioning discussion board on Discourse. In describing your example be sure to identify the discriminative stimulus, and whether you’re using positive/negative reinforcement or punishment.
