puppy makes a mess on the floor. Annisa kicks her puppy and puts it out in the yard where it whines sadly. Which of the following statements explains her behavior toward the puppy?
a) Annisa is correctly applying Skinnerian principles of negative reinforcement to change her dog's behavior.b) Annisa is using negative punishment on her dog and it will change the dog's behavior.c) Annisa is modeling the aggressive behavior her parents demonstrated to her.d) Annisa's parents probably think that the best way to raise kids is "spare the rod, spoil the child."
c) Annisa is modeling the aggressive behavior her parents demonstrated to her.
Explanation:
Because Annisa spilled her cereal and her parents spanked her and sent her to her room, she extends the aggressive behaviour her parents demonstrated to her to her puppy by kicking her puppy and sending it out into the yard.
This shows the transfer of aggression between Annisa and her puppy as she meted out the same punishment she got from her parents to her puppy. She was aggressive to her puppy and acted out similar patterns of aggression to the one her parents gave her.
Her parents spanked her and sent her to her room where she cried. She kicked her puppy and sent it out to the yard where it whined sadly.
