Hi Class,
So far we have discussed reinforcement (increasing the frequency of a behavior as a result of the consequence) and punishment (decreasing the frequency of a behavior as a result of the consequence). What I would like you to do is to find a couple of video clips off the internet where one illustrates reinforcement and the other illustrates punishment.
For each clip I would like you to briefly describe/summarize the clip. 1) Tell us what behavior (target behavior) you are using that illustrates the reinforced or punished behavior (be careful as there are often many behaviors in a video and you need to isolate the behavior of interest). 2) Next tell us what the consequence of the behavior is. 3) Then tell us how, that consequence either will increase or decrease the frequency of the behavior. 4) Tell us if the consequence involves the addition of something or if it involves the removal of something. 5) Finally tell us to the antecedent is.
Please then list the ABC's of the behavior
A=
B=
C=
Now state if this is an example of positive reinforcement, positive punishment, negative reinforcement, negative punishment.
Do the same for the second clip
For originality sake, make sure the videos you are not using the same videos the four other students before you just used.
When you are done with both clips, copy and paste the URL at the bottom so we can go and see the videos you used.
Once you are done with your post make list of the terms and terminology you used in your post.
Let me know if you have any questions....

This is the clip from the disney pixar film Up where Russell finally finds the snipe who he affectionately names Kevin. He is trying to get Kevin to come out of the bush when he figures out that Kevin is a fan of chocolate and then uses that to get Kevin out of the bush.
1. The behavior is Kevin walking out of the bush
2. The consequence of the behavior is that Kevin gets chocolate
3. The consequence will increase the frequency of the behavior because Kevin loves chocolate and so he will do what he can to get more chocolate and that means coming out of the bush.
4. The consequence involves the addition of chocolate to Kevin
5. The antecedent is Roaming in the Jungle
A: Roaming in the Jungle
B: Kevin walking out of the bush
C: Kevin gets chocolate
This is an example of positive reinforcement

This is another clip from Up where Doug cunningly slips the cone of shame on the Alpha dog to render him helpless and the Alpha dog loses all control of the other dogs as Doug becomes the new Alpha.
1. The behavior is wearing the cone of shame
2. the consequence of wearing the cone of shame is that you no longer have authority over those around you.
3. The consequence will decrease the behavior because Alpha likes having power over the other dogs and did not like to give it up when wearing the cone of shame.
4. The consequence involves the addition of the cone of shame onto Alphas neck
5. The antecedent is in the blimp
A: In the blimp
B: Wearing the cone of shame
C: Losing authority of those around you
This clip is an example of positive punishment because you are decreasing the likelihood of the behavior but you are adding something new into the situation.

4. The consequence involves gaining or the addition of attention.
5. The antecedent is that there are two brothers that would be interested in the girl chipmunk.
A. Two brothers
B. The girl chipmunk flirts with them both

This clip was a short pixar film called For the Birds. During the film all of these little birds are on a telephone wire and they do not want this big bird to come and join them, so when the big bird does they peck at him to try and get him off of the pole. When they finally succeed they are sling-shot through the air losing all of their feathers.
1. The behavior is the little birds pecking at the big bird.
2. The consequence of this is that the little birds are sling-shot into the air losing all of their feathers.
3. The consequence will decrease this behavior because the birds were very embarrassed to have lost all of their feathers and did not like that.
4. The consequence involves losing or the subtraction of feathers.
5. The antecedent is the little birds sitting on the telephone wire.
A. Little birds sitting on a telephone wire
B. The little birds pecking at the big bird
C. The little birds losing all of their feathers

STUDENT (TA) EXAMPLE:
Positive Punishment
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJq4jWSQNd8
Summary-It’s very short and easy to describe. The little girl learned a valuable life lesson. Do not hold onto the dogs leash when you tell your dog to “GO”. It was clearly learning through positive punishment as something unpleasant was added to stop her from repeating the unwanted or dangerous action. I think she learned her lesson by “punishing herself”. Could this be “self-punishment”? After all, there is self-reinforcement.-->At any rate, it's positive punishment!
1. The girl Yelling “Go” to her dog was a specific behavior that lead to an unfortunate punishment.
2. By Yelling at her dog to go, she was pulled forward by the leash she still had in her hand. This caused her to face plant into the sidewalk/concrete.
3. The consequence will definitely decrease the likelihood that the girl will ever repeat this behavior. (unless the impact kill all of the memory part of her brain that would aid her in remembering the consequence of this action…in which case, she would be a lost cause…)
4. The consequence involves the addition of something bad/unpleasant. The unpleasant this is the smashing of her face into the concrete ground.
5. The antecedent is the driveway or the sidewalk or just on concrete. It could have a million outcome, unfortunately for her, the outcome was a face-plant.
A= In driveway
B= Girl Yells “GO” while holding onto the dogs leash
C= Girl Smashes her face into concrete

Summary- The man is in a store shopping with his son. His son wants sweets, the man says “no”, and the child throws a temper tantrum. The child’s horrible behavior then reinforces condom use. This is negative reinforcement in terms of condom use. The use of a condom is reinforced in the way that it removes something unpleasant and bad-like “unexpected” (term used loosely as I don’t wish to offend anyone-just going off the child in the commercial example) or misbehaving children.
1. Target behavior is the child’s temper tantrum and psychotic behavior
2. As a consequence of the child’s behavior, witnesses may choose to never have children or just wait until they are ready. It most definitely should turn down people sex drive at least a little!!!! Therefore, it will promote condom usage.
3. The consequence of condom use will decrease the unpleasantness of unexpected children that are misbehaved and difficult to manage (particularly by individuals that aren’t ready or grown up enough themselves.) Therefore, it will decrease the behavior as there will be fewer parents that are not ready to raise a child…assumedly (according to the clear assumption made by the commercial-THIS DOES NOT NECESSARILY APPLY TO 100% OF PEOPLE OR ENTIRELY MY OPINION) children will be better behaved when the parents plan to have a child and raise it responsibly.
4. The consequence involves the subtraction of something. That is the subtraction of an unexpected child that will through temper tantrums in public places.
5. The antecedent is the grocery store. This is the public place where the child chooses to misbehave and display to the public one of the negative outcomes of unexpected children
A=In a grocery store
B=Child screams and throws a fit
C=All witnesses use condoms!/Increases condom use
Personal side note I am making outside of the point I made in reference to the commercial…this is so that people don’t view me as insensitive, heartless, child-hating, etc. as a consequence of my behavior which is posting this blog= All children can misbehave-even when they are expected, planned, and in a stable family…the point over all is use a condom! This is negatively reinforced by the fact that if you use a condom, the consequence of a horribly misbehaved child will be much less likely of occurring. The consequence of me posting this disclaimer is that nobody comes at me in the street/or class with a pitch fork!

Two men are sitting on the couch chilling, maybe watching a football game.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sH-0rph_hPg
1. retrieving a beer for buddy
2. the man recieves a cookie
3. recieving a cookie will increase the likelihood of him getting him a beer more often

I recently watched Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows. It has a scene that gives a great example of both reinforcement and punishment and how slight changes in the antecedents can change the behavior.
Negative Punishment

1. Hand-to-hand combat with Moriarty.
2. Death to Sherlock Holmes.
3. The outcome will decrease the behavior.
4. Removal of Sherlock Holmes life.
5. Talking with Moriarty on a balcony.

B- Not fighting with Moriarty.
C- Staying alive.
This is negative punishment because he is decreasing the behavior of fighting with Moriarty and it would have been the removal of something.

Let me know if it's okay that I used two parts of a clip instead of two clips. Thanks!
It's okay that you used two parts of a clip because you analyzed both parts. I appreciate that and your asking. I also like that you listed the terms that you used at the bottom of the post.
Regarding your negative punishment example, you have the consequence as "staying alive" this would reflect keeping/getting something making it positive (where as dying would be losing something and thus would be negative). Further, remaining alive would increase the behavior of "not fighting with Moriarty" therefore it would be positive reinforcement.

Positive Punishment
Summary: The young woman in this video decided she was going to sing for the camera, while doing so she also decided she would stand on top of a table. I think that this young lady clearly learned a lesson when it came to the consequence of her actions.
1.) The girl singing & dancing on top of the table was the target behavior that eventually lead to the punishment.
2.) By dancing on the table and not really paying attention to what she was doing, she fell hitting the table first and floor second.
3.) The consequence of falling extremely hard and hitting everything on the way down, will decrease the frequency of this behavior.
4.) The consequence involves the addition of pain, which is an unpleasant feeling.
5.) The antecedent is the camera, which she was using to entertain an audience.
A= The camera
B= Girl singing & dancing while on a table
C= Girl falls extremely hard hitting the table and the floor

A young couple is at a play. The male has no interest in being there, but he is dating a “brainy girl” and wants to make her happy. He wants her to be impressed by his sensitive side. The young man puts eye drops into his eye so it appears that he has been crying in order to impress the girl. Since she thinks he is crying she touches his arm to comfort him, from the young girl’s expression you can tell she is in awe of him. He knows that “this performance” is increasing his chances of staying with her and of having sexual relations with her. So, by faking tears he is getting closer to being with her. A= faking tears B= the young girl comforting him C= The young man will be closer to sexual relations with the girl. In this video positive reinforcement happens.

The first video is of a little dog whose owner has put a treat right on top of his nose. In order to get the treat he has to keep it on his nose while his owner commands him to "stay" for about 4 seconds, when the owner says "okay" the dog eats it.

The above clip was directed by Ray Zablocki.
The video is set to a song by Nine Inch Nails called Every Day is Exactly the Same. In the video, a man finds a book that he is intrigued by. He reads the book until the sun comes up. He begins to push aside his other work and other priorities to read the book. He reads standing up, sitting down, in the corner, in bed, etc. The individual seems to be drawn to the book, or the material in the book, which leads me to believe that it is a reinforcer of sorts. Without knowing what it is the man is reading, it is hard for me to know why he continues to be reinforced. It is possible that the individual already had ideas that are now being reinforced, or the book could hold "answers" in which he has been searching for, which increases the frequency of the behavior. The frequency increases and increases, until everyday seems to be the same for individual. The repetition seems to change the man. He looks different and he begins acted different. By the end of the book, the man is screaming and it seems as though he is losing his mind.
Although this seems to be a negative consequence, I do not know if the consequence has brought a stop to his continuous reading of the same material.
A=Finding of the book
B=Continuous reading, day after day
C=Screaming and Frustration
Negative Reinforcement

The above clip is a trailer from the movie The Squid and the Whale. The movie is about a family experiencing divorce. In one particular scene of the clip, the eldest son states that he will no longer stay with his mother because he finds out that his mother has cheated on his father. I feel the child communicating this is a form of punishment toward his mother. The consequence of this decision is the mother feeling hurt and telling her child that he sounds like his father.
A=Family going through divorce
B=Children taking sides between mother and father
C=Mother feels hurt by son's decision
This may feel like positive punishment to the son and negative punishment to his mother

The scene is from the TV show The Office and starts out with Dwight arriving to work to find his desk wrapped in police tape. He proceeds to ask other office workers if they have seen or heard anything. Jim tries to tell him that it is just a prank and he can walk in it and take it off but Dwight informs him that he is a voluntary sheriff’s deputy on the weekends and it is real police tape at which you do not mess with. Jim calls Pam the secretary (at which you know it’s his prank) and she tells Dwight that it’s the Sheriff and he wants to talk to him regarding the desk. She transfers it to his phone that he doesn’t want to touch because it could be evidence so Jim does and he freaks out.
1. The target behavior is the prank.
2. The consequence of this behavior is Dwight falls into the joke and people smile and laugh.

A=Going to work
B=Prank being done
C= smiles and laughs
This is an example of positive reinforcement because you are increasing the frequency that Jim will play another prank on Dwight.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImorUXUBPew

This is a clip of a high school student, ranting about how he "hates lazy people". He is very adamant on claiming that he is not a lazy person, and due to other's laziness he is being hurt. He is giving a brief description of a class, claiming that other people are being lazy, and giving his opinions on the problem. By the end of this video he has increased the volume of his voice, and used selective word choice. He is noticeably angry by the end, and claims that he needs to stop before he hurts someone.
1. The behavior is this kid, yelling angrily, about lazy people.
2. The consequence of this behavior is looking like a jerk.
3. The consequence will probably lesson this behavior, due to his ranting, and yelling. However, his anger will probably be a problem.
4. The consequence involves him yelling and getting mad.
5. The antecedent is making a video, at home.
A: Making a video at home
B: This kid gets mad about lazy people
C: He looks like a jerk.

In this video a girl is constantly being interrupted by Adele. Adele continues to pop up out of no where, and invite herself to Jenna's events, and daily life. Jenna continues to inform Adele that she was not invited, and that she cannot just show up. Adele does not listen to these advances, and continues to pop in on Jenna. By the end of this movie, Jenna tells Adele that her behavior is unacceptable, but due to Adele's failure to listen; Jenna is the one who ends up leaving.
1. The behavior of Jenna is telling Adele that she cannot join them.
2. The consequence is Adele continuing to pop in.
3. The consequence will continue the previous action due to Adele's inability to listen.

This is an example of positive punishment. Although Adele would not leave she was still taught an important lesson, when Jenna walked out, that people need their alone time. Adele was also shown that she cannot invite herself over to someone else's house without their expressed consent.

The target behavior is the shoe throwing, which results in an apology and explaination from her boyfriend in attempt to resolve the issue at hand. That apology is the consequence. The shoe throwing is the punishing factor. He probably would have said: "Having a shoe thrown at me was threatening". This was a negative valence because it was undesireable. He clearly is not enjoying this action. The antecedent here would be a heated argument between girlfriend and boyfriend. In this case there was an addition of an undesireable action. This works as a punishment procedure because the punisher would decrease the boyfriend's tendency to emit the behavior of lying to his girlfriend.
A= heated argument between girlfriend and boyfriend.
B= girlfriend throwing shoes out of anger.
C= apology and explanation from the boyfriend.

This clip is one from Alice in Wonderland. It displays reinforcement. The target behavior is Alice drinking the shrinking potion the queen prepared. Consequently, she shrinks back to normal size; This is the postive valence. A desireable outcome occured. "I am back to my normal size again, thank god!" she may have been thinking. This is a reinforcement procedure because the antecedent is Alice being a giant, she drinks the potion, then shrinks back down. This potion, being the addition of a pleaurable substance, would incline Alice to emit the behavior of accepting shrinking potions from the queen again if she ever needs it because it worked properly.
A= Alice is a giant.
B= drinks the queens potion.
C= shrinks to normal size.

I love old shows and cartoons (as my future clip posts will show in time) and so I picked this clip because it really shows punished behavior. The clip is from the show Dinosaurs (1991-1994) and it features the baby dinosaur of the family trying to eat his own tail. 1) The BEHAVIOR is continually biting his tail to try to eat it. That’s all the clip shows so it shouldn’t be too hard to miss. 2) The CONSEQUENCE of trying to eat a part of your own body is pain. A lot of pain. 3) In this clip it takes until the third try when Baby Sinclair finally connects that stabbing the pink thing and trying to eat it will only cause him pain and he shouldn’t do that. But as far as I can remember this is the only time when he takes a fork to his own tail, so I’m going to say that the FREQUENCY of the BEHAVIOR DECREASED. 4) The CONSEQUENCE centered on the addition of pain. 5) In his highchair in the kitchen. You can’t really see it in this clip but that is where Baby Sinclair spent most of his time in the show.
A= In the kitchen.
B= Stabbing tail with fork.
C= Screaming in pain.
I would say this in an example of POSITIVE PUNISHMENT because pain as a CONSEQUENCE typically results in a DECREASE OF BEHVIOR. And it is POSITIVE because the pain is being added and not taken away.

Keeping with the dinosaur theme (wasn’t initially intentional), I chose a clip from the movie The Land Before Time (1988). Just so this makes sense, I will use how the dinosaurs identified themselves in the movie when talking about the characters for this post so that when you watch the clip you will have a better chance of recognizing who is who. This movie was directed towards little kids when it was made and using words like ‘brontosaurus’ would have been hard to understand for someone under the age of ten. The movie is about five dinosaurs that are traveling to meet up with their families in ‘The Great Valley’, aka: a valley with no carnivores and food for herbivores. In this clip, they are trying to escape and/or not get eaten by a sharptooth (T. Rex). I picked this clip because throughout most of the movie Petrie (the flyer) is afraid to fly and in this clip he learns to fly when before all he could really do was glide to the ground from a high point. The other characters seen in this clip are; Littlefoot (the long neck), Ducky (the swimmer), Spike (the spike tail), and Cera (the three horn). 1) The BEHAVIOR is flying. 2) The main CONSEQUENCE that Petrie is trying to avoid is getting eaten. For reference, here is the clip that also shows his fear of heights and inability to fly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hR1XzVQnfqY&feature=relmfu. 3) The CONSEQUENCE results in Petrie knowing how to fly and not being afraid. I know this for a fact I have seen the other movies in this series. 4) It involved removing the chance of getting eaten. 5) The scene takes place on the side/edge of a cliff.
A= On the side of a cliff.
B= Flying.
C= Not getting eaten.
This clip shows NEGATIVE REINFORCEMENT when Petrie is attempting to fly for the first time. NEGATIVE because it is taking away fear and getting eaten. And it is REDINFORCEMENT because once he has learned the behavior he started to fly all the time (INCREASED FREQUENCY of the BEHAVIOR).
I capitalized all of my term words that I used.

This clip is from a cartoon titled "Sheep In The Island." The clip is somewhat long so I focused on a target behavior in the opening scence. The sheep is shipwrecked and is stuck in a crate. The sheep bounces against rocks while in the crate. Finally the crate opens up and the sheep is free.
1. Target Behavior: Bouncing against the rocks while inside the crate.
2. Consequence: Crate opens up, freeing the sheep
3. This will increase the frequency of the sheep bouncing crates against rocks.
4. The consequence ivolves the removal of the crate
5. Antecedent: Being shipwrecked on an island
A = Shipwrecked on an island
B = Bouncing the crate against rocks while inside it
C = Crate opens up, freeing the sheep
This would be an example of Negative Reinforcement. The sheep's behavior of bouncing the crate against rocks is being reinforced by the crate opeing up which will increase the frequency of the sheep bouncing the crate against rocks. It is Negative because the crate, which is aversive, is being taken away.

This clip is a movie trailer for Monsters Inc. 2. It's a short clip where Mike has fallen asleep and left the door unlocked. Sully has snuck in and glued reflective disco ball pieces to Mike's body. I am focusing on Mike's behavior for my example.
1. Target Behavior: Fell asleep with the door unlocked.
2. Consequence: Sully snuck in and glued reflective pieces on him.
3. This will decrease the frequency of Mike falling asleep with the door unlocked.
4. Consequence involes the addition of the glued on disco ball pieces.
5. Antecedent: Being at college
A = Being at college
B = Falling asleep with the door unlocked
C = Having reflective disco ball pieces glued on him
This is an example of Positive Punishment. Mike's behavior of leaving the door unlocked was punished by Sully sneaking in and glueing reflective disco ball pieces on him. This will decrease the frequency of Mike leaving the door unlocked. It is Positive because the reflective disco ball pieces are aversive and being added.

The first clip I used was a very simple clip. It shows an owner trying to get her donkey to cross a tarp. In order to achieve this she coaxes the donkey with food.
1. The donkey doesn't want to walk across the tarp.
2. Every step the donkey takes, the owner gives the
donkey another bite of food.
3. This increses the behavior of getting the donkey
to walk across the tarp or other things besides
the bare ground.
4. This is an addition because it is adding a
behavior.
5. The anecedant is training the donkey to do be
comfortable walking across the tarp
A--> Training the donkey
B--> Walking across a tarp
C--> The donkey receives food
This is positive reinforcement because recieving food is a positive consequence to walking on the tarp
Clip 2 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsusakRf7T8
The second clip I used is a clip from the movie Toy Story. The scene is towards the end of the film when Woody is trying to save Buzz from Sid. Sid's version of playing with toys is destroying them. The toys decide that they want to teach Sid a lesson so the devise a plan. They reveal to him that they are really alive and it scares him so much that he becomes afraid of all toys.
1. Sid is destroying the toys and the toys want to
get back at him.
2. The boy becomes afraid of the toys and doesn't
destroy toys anymore.
3. Because the toys showed Sid that they were alive it
scares him so much that he won't do it anymore.
4. This is removal because it is stopping a behavior.
5. Sid destroying the toys
A--> Boy destroys toys
B--> Toys come to life and scare him
C--> Boy doesn't destroy toys anymore.
This is a form of negative punishment because the boy will remember the toys coming to life which scares him so it is stopping the behavior of destroying toys.
Terms: Positive reinforcement, Negative Punishment, Consequence, Antecedent
This clip is a little bulldog puppy growling/whining and making noise. The behavior that the puppy is emitting is whining and growling. The consequence of the behavior is that the woman talks to the puppy every time he emits the behavior. This shows reinforcement of behavior as the consequence is that the dog gets attention when he makes the sound even though the woman says shush she is still giving a reinforcing consequence, thus the frequency of the behavior will increase. The consequence involves the addition of attention gave to the dog. The antecedent is a new puppy is brought into the home. This is an example of positive reinforcement.
A=Puppy is brought into the home
B=Puppy whines and growls
C=Woman gives him attention

I concentrated on the first part of this video clip where the boy is at a museum and pushes a button when much to his chagrin he is startled by the roar of the T-Rex. The behavior the boy emits is pushing a button on the display. The consequence of this behavior is that he is terrified by the sudden loud noise coming from the dinosaur and the movement. This shows punishment as the consequence is something that is adverse and startling to the boy, so the frequency of the behavior, aka pushing a button, is likely to decrease. The consequence involves the addition of an adverse sound. The antecedent is the boy in a museum. This is an example of negative punishment.
A=At the museum
B=Boy pushes a button
C=T-Rex moves and makes a scary sound
