Behavior-Consequence Relationships

• An automatic behavior-consequence relationship is exemplified by an intrinsic connection between the behavior and its consequence, without external influence.
• In the scenario 'Asked to share toy, gives toy away, receives praise', the behavior-consequence relationship is a social one, as the consequence (praise) is provided by someone else.
• An escape behavior-consequence relationship is exemplified by avoiding an unpleasant stimulus or situation as a consequence of the behavior, such as escaping a noisy environment.
• In the scenario 'Sees a toy in store, asks parent for toy, parent buys toy', the maintaining variable is a social reinforcer, as the parent's action (buying the toy) is the consequence that maintains the behavior (asking for the toy).
