Here we're talking about ted, a specific scenario of a kid named ted.
00:03
He has a lot of behavioral issues and we're going to talk about different ways to use reinforcement and punishment to help him out.
00:09
So we're going to start with positive reinforcement.
00:12
So pause reinforcement.
00:16
This refers to the process of rewarding or reinforcing desirable behavior in order to increase the likelihood that the behavior will be repeated in the future.
00:23
So for him, anytime he raises his hand before answering a question, instead of just blurting it out, you could give him a star in his journal.
00:30
When he gets a certain amount of stars, he gets a prize.
00:31
So it's adding something good for good behavior.
00:45
So it reinforces that he should do it.
00:50
Negative reinforcement occurs when something unpleasant or uncomfortable is removed or taken away in order to increase the likelihood of a desired behavior.
00:59
So for example, he's in time out for hitting someone and he apologizes, take him out of time out, take away that negative behavior or take away that negative stimulus of time out.
01:26
That will show him that apologizing will get him out of punishments and trouble.
01:31
What is one positive punishment that could be used? positive punishment.
01:34
So let's say positive punishment means giving an undesirable consequence after an unwanted behavior to make it less appealing.
01:42
So an example of this would be grounding him every time he's aggressive with another student or deducting from his grades every time he speaks without raising his hand...
