How To develop a new behavior


1. Successive Approximation Principle:
To teach a child to act in a manner in which he has seldom or never before behaved, reward successive steps to the final behavior.
2. Continuous Reinforcement Principle:
To develop a new behavior that the child has not previously exhibited, arrange for an immediate reward after each correct performance.
3. Negative Reinforcement Principle:
To increase a child's performance in a particular way, you may arrange for him to avoid or escape a mild aversive situation by improving his behavior or by allowing him to avoid the aversive situation by behaving appropriately.
4. Modeling Principle:
To teach a child new ways of behaving, allow him to observe a prestigeful person performing the desired behavior.
5. Cueing Principle:
To teach a child to remember to act at a specific time, arrange for him to receive a cue for the correct performance just before the action is expected rather than after he has performed it incorrectly.
6. Discrimination Principle:
To teach a child to act in a particular way under one set of circumstances but not in another, help him to identify the cues that differentiate the circumstances and reward him only when his action is appropriate to the cue.
