Question

Ms. Coulter was successful using a token reinforcement system with Jordan to decrease his inappropriate behaviors in her class. Mr. Johnson is now going to implement the same token system in his class in hopes that Jordan's behavior will improve. This is an example of what generalization technique? Group of answer choices

Answer 1

This question is missing the options. I've found the complete question online. It is the following:

Ms. Coulter was successful using a token reinforcement system with Jordan to decrease his inappropriate behaviors in class. Mr. Johnson is now going to implement the same token system in his class in hope that Jordan's behavior will improve. This is an example of what generalization technique?

a. train loosely

b. sequentially modify

c. introduce to naturally maintaining contingencies

d. mediate generalization

Answer:

This is an example of:

b. sequentially modify

Explanation:

Sequential modification refers to the implementation of a certain system or procedure in different settings, expecting similar results to occur. For instance, a certain reinforcement system was applied at school. It generated a change in behavior at school, but not at home. Then, it is applied at home with the purpose of generating a change of behavior there as well. This is what we have in the passage provided. Mr. Johnson wishes to obtain the same or similar results to Ms. Coulter's by applying the same token reinforcement system.
