  1. Behavior modification 7th Class Chaining, prompting, fading, extinction

  2. Exercise Chaining - Shaping Feedback Poi 2

  3. Exercise: Poi 2 • Learn to do fancy things with Poi • Time: 5 minutes

  4. Chaining • Reinforcement of successive elements of a behavior chain • Behavior chain – sequence of related behaviors, each of which provides the cue for the next and the last produces s reinforcer • E.g.tying shoes, going to school..

  5. Types of chaining • Forward chaining • Backward chaining

  6. Now try reading this antidisestablishmentarianism

  7. Rules for chaining • Define the target behavior • As a chain! – you must know in advance what sequence you will be dealing with • Reinforce successive elements of the chain • Monitor results

  8. Application and implications • Being a playboy • Scripts (Social Psychology) • Managing people • Plan – Do – Check - Act • Empowerment • Development, coaching • Grow – Goal, Reality, Options, Will • Self management • GTD - Getting things done

  9. Business process improvement

  10. GROW model

  11. Exercise GROW

  12. Exercise: GROW • Instruction: • Form pairs • Divide roles: coachee & coach • Pick 1 issue you are currently working on • Use GROW model to improve • Time: 5 minutes

  13. Prompting and fading • Prompting • Providing antecedents that evoke a target behavior • Fading • Gradually reducing the strength of a prompt

  14. Types of prompting • Verbal • Physical • Gestural • Modeling • Environmental

  15. Rules for prompting and fading • Define the target behavior • Identify the suitable prompts • Prompt reinforce and fade • Monitor results

  16. Exercise Finding prompts

  17. Exercise: Finding prompts • Instruction: • Form groups of 4-6 people • Think of real life examples of prompts from for at least 2 different categories: • Verbal • Physical • Gestural • Modeling • Environmental • Time: 5 minutes + 5 discussion

  18. Extinction • Tool for decreasing frequency of behavior • Withholding the reinforcers that maintain the behavior

  19. Rules for extinction • Define target behavior • Identify reinforcers that maintain target behavior • Withhold all reinforcement • Monitor results

  20. Exercise Talkative colleague

  21. Eric Berne • Transactional analysis • Book: Games people play • 3 ego states Parent Parent Adult Adult Child Child

  22. Favourite games - examples • Guess what is wrong with me? • Yes, but.. • Parent´s club • How would you apply extinction in these cases?

  23. Problems with extinction • Behavior may produce reinforcement from number of sources • It is slow and takes time • Extinction burst – extinction leads often for a short period to sudden increase of behavior on extinction

  24. Differential reinforcement • Combines extinction and reinforcement to change the frequency of target behavior • Procedure: • Put the undesirable behavior on extinction • Reinforce the desirable target behavior

  25. Differential reinforcement types • DRL • Differential reinforcement of low rates • DRA • Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior • DRI • Differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior

  26. Discussion [The end of the today's class]
