Answer:

Darren is using C. shaping to get his son to eat his peas.

Explanation:

Shaping is a tactic used within Operant Conditioning, which is understood as the process for a subject to <em>acquire a certain behavior</em> through reinforcements.

Shaping occurs when the reinforcements occur during a successive pattern of the behavior, not only whenever a behavior is present.

We can see it clearly in this example; Darren <em>slowly starts to praise </em>(reinforce) his son's behaviors, <em>gradually moving</em> from moving his fork towards the peas until he moves the fork with the pea to its mouth.

What's the difference between the American Revolution and the War for Independence?<br><br> Explain.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Their isn't really a difference between the American Revolution and the War of Independence. The "War of independence" is another form of writing the "American Revolution."

The only difference I see that an independence was a part of a country that split from the dependent one while a revolution is in a war of independence, but doesn't always result in a independence. A revolution could occur in that one country alone without a war at all.

This war was fought between the 13 colonies and the UK.

  • First battle fought in Lexington and Concord.
  • Last battle fought in Yorktown.

After lots of fighting the 13 colonies pulled through and gained independence on July 4, 1776.

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
