Answer:

The most appropriate extinction procedure is extinction: extinction of Susie’s behavior which has been maintained by automatic reinforcement. Extinction procedure (like positive reinforcement) can be used to gradually reduce her aberrant behavior which is unintentionally and automatically reinforced; on the long run, extinction can eliminate the occurrence of aberrant behavior in the future.

Answer: Extinction of Behavior maintained by automatic reinforcement.

Explanation: Automatic reinforcement is a person displays certain Behaviors that are not mediated or controlled by external stimuli or forces. It can also be said to be independent and it is also a Behavior that is not (socially oriented) which means it is only COORDINATED by the person displaying such Behaviors. Automatic reinforcement can be positive if the person obtains something positive as a result of the Behaviors or negative when it fails to obtain a favorable response in relation to the Behaviors.
