Dr. J’s son loves baseball. He plays baseball as much as he can. We all try to make his experience and fun and help him improve in the game he loves. HIs coach tries to make practices fun by using operant conditioning. When Eli strikes a player out in a practice game, the coach adds a twizzler to this pail of treats in the dugout. When a player gets a hit off Eli, he makes Eli run one lap around the entire baseball field as an immediate consequence. Eli’s mother is different, she gets so excited when he gets a hit that she goes home that night and does Eli’s chores so he can take a bath and go to bed to rest. When Elis mother takes away him having to do his chores so that he is motivated to give his best effort in baseball, what type of operant conditioning is being utilized? 

Little Dr. J displayed signs and symptoms of ADHD as a youth. He was very active, energetic, did not follow directions very well and tended to be more interested in what he wanted to read or whether the Yankees would win that night then what was being reviewed in school. As a result of Dr. J’s deficits, school officials wanted to help Dr. J manage his impulses and learn to focus his attention, but they did not want to have him spend the majority of his time in a special education classroom due to fear that he could miss out on social learning opportunities. In constructing Dr. J’s Individualized Education Plan (IEP), what principle did the school psychologists at Dr. J’s school attend to most?
