Study Notes
Shaping Flashcards Overview
- Reinforcement is crucial in shaping, occurring when a child approximates target language, such as saying "juice."
- Previous responses, like "Juh" and "Joo," are phased out or put on extinction once the accurate response is reinforced.
Shaping Principles
- Shaping uses reinforcement for responses progressively closer to the target behavior, leading to a decrease in previously reinforced incorrect responses.
- Initially, responses similar to the target can receive reinforcement, emphasizing gradual improvement.
Examples and Applications
- An example of shaping includes a coach praising players for improved accuracy in basketball throws.
- A Registered Behavior Technician reinforces initial steps toward a desired verbal response, like saying "Help," starting with simple approximations such as "Elp."
Key Concepts in Differential Reinforcement
- Differential reinforcement is based on selectively reinforcing some responses while ignoring others, allowing focus on desired behaviors.
- Backing up to reinforce earlier responses is permissible, challenging the notion that only forward progression is valid in shaping.
Non-components of Differential Reinforcement
- Showing the child the correct response does not align with the principles of differential reinforcement, contrasting with the emphasis on organic learning through reinforcement strategies.
