What are the ABC's of Behavior

• Animals, Bug, and Creatures

• Antecedent, Behavior, Consequence

• After, Before, Consequence

Positive Reinforcement is.......

• the process in which a stimulus (an item, activity, etc.) is added directly after a behavior, resulting in the behavior increasing in future likelihood

• occurs when something is removed as a consequence, and the behavior decreases.

• occurs when something already present is removed (taken away), increasing the likelihood of a person's behavior increasing in the future.

• when something is added after the behavior occurs, and the behavior decreases.

Negative Reinforcement is.......

• the process in which a stimulus (an item, activity, etc.) is added directly after a behavior, resulting in the behavior increasing in future likelihood

• occurs when something is removed as a consequence, and the behavior decreases.

• occurs when something already present is removed (taken away), increasing the likelihood of a person's behavior increasing in the future.

• when something is added after the behavior occurs, and the behavior decreases.

Negative Punishment is.......

• the process in which a stimulus (an item, activity, etc.) is added directly after a behavior, resulting in the behavior increasing in future likelihood

• occurs when something is removed as a consequence, and the behavior decreases.

• occurs when something already present is removed (taken away), increasing the likelihood of a person's behavior increasing in the future.

• when something is added after the behavior occurs, and the behavior decreases.
