Shape reinforcement of behaviors that come close to or roughly to the desired novel behavior (Miltenberger, 2015)
Differential reinforcement establishes the standards of reinforcement and terminates behavior that occurs when reinforcing one particular behavior that occurs while reinforcing another behavior. Hence, upsurging the rest of the behavior and decline weakening behavior as a result of termination (Cooper, 2014).
An example of the differential reinforcement of successive approximations of behavior.
Define the target behavior putting toys away
Identify the closest behavior: picking up toys closes to toy chest
