In the context of methods of decreasing stressful behaviors, social reinforcement is best defined as the process of rewarding a behavior with social approval by someone else.

<h3>What is social reinforcement?</h3>

Although there are many distinct kinds of reinforcement, the social reinforcement we experience <u>on a daily basis</u> as humans is one of the most prevalent.

Social reinforcement is the feedback we get from other people in response to what we do. It might take the shape of smiles, acceptance, praise, applause, and attention. We may be influenced by reinforcement to engage in an activity or not.

According to the social reinforcement hypothesis, social reinforcement may occur naturally just by being among other people.

<h3>what are the different types of social reinforcement?</h3>
  • Positive reinforcement is when a behavior produces something positive, such praise or a reward of some type. Someone who receives positive reinforcement is more likely to repeat the desired conduct.
  • Negative reinforcement occurs when something undesirable is avoided or withheld as a <u>result of a certain conduct</u>. To prevent getting a sunburn, you could put on sunscreen before going to the beach. The conduct eliminates the undesirable effect (getting a sunburn).
  • Extinction: Extinction is the termination of conduct as a result of ceasing to obtain a response. For instance, the source of a person's fear may trigger them if they have a particular phobia.
  • Punishment is a form of reinforcement that lowers the likelihood that a behavior will occur again.

frutty [35]

Answer:

Henry's action could best be described as a(n):<u>operant behavior</u>

Explanation:

According to the American psychologist Frederic Skinner, operant conditioning occurs when an organism interacts with a system that provides rewards in response to a type of behavior. That is why we can say that operant conditioning is the learning process that is based on the fact that the probability of a given response depends on the expected consequences. In operant conditioning, behavior is controlled by discriminative stimuli present in the learning situation that convey information about the likely consequences of the response.

Compared to roman mosaics, early christian mosaics were more __________.
Sergeu [11.5K]

The correct answer is Luminous

Explanation:  The mosaics have a very old origin. They were already called mosaics in Crete, Mesopotamia and, as we know, in Greece and Rome.

The Romans  built the mosaics with small cubic pieces called tessela.  The materials of these tesserae were limestone, stained glass, ceramic.

Paleo-Christian art, now able to enjoy greater financial bases and relegating fresco mural painting to the background, will seek to perfect the technique and will toast the interior of the church with intense and vibrant color images, possible by replacing marble with pieces of colored glass . However, this new material does not allow a complex palette of shades and the modeling of the figures loses their contact with the real world, the characters present themselves as transcendental, immaterial beings, inhabitants of a kingdom of light and gold.
