Participants will be able to make decisions regarding the level of reinforcement that will yield the highest probability of the child performing successfully.
Participants will be able to identify the most effective manner to shape the environment to maximize the child’s opportunity for success and appropriate behavior modi?cation.
Participants will be able to identify the behavioral principles and procedures that support the development of Instructional Control with learners demonstrating low motivation for learning in therapy sessions.
