Shaping
differential reinforcements of successive[ approximations toward a target behavior
Target Behavior
The form of behavior that meets our specified criterion
Successive Approximations
small achievable steps that increase in complexity or difficulty toward the target behavior
Differential Reinforcement
the process by which certain responses are not reinforced
Differential Reinforcement involves
reinforcement and extinction
The alternative to shaping is to
wait
Essential Ingredient for selection is
variability
How our behavior is selected in our lifetime mirrors
how our behavior was selected in our evolutionary history
shaping is an
ontogenetic parallel to phylogenetic selection
Shaping can occur naturally
or artificially
