Assigment for “prof.goodman” – Behavior Modifcation

Pretend you have entered the workplace and need to teach someone (child or adult) either to continue a behaviour (e.g., bring you coffee in the morning) or to stop a behaviour (e.g., stop chewing on a pen). Using the learning/conditioning technique of your choice, explain how you would change (increase/decrease) this behaviour. You should also specify the frequency of reward or punishment if applicable (e.g., fixed interval, variable ratio, etc). This assignment has three parts: 1) description of the situation; 2) implementation of the solution; 3) rational for your selection. Each section is described in more detail below.

4-5 Pages. Please read rubric and apply only if you fully understand.
