incident is any extrinsic emission increases of a behavior. In other words, is an external stimulus that causes the behavior from recurring. If not repeated, not reinforced.
From a theoretical standpoint, the idea is to know in advance what enhancer function.
Characteristics of a positive reinforcer:
1) it reduces the drive (eg, eating behavior intensifies as it reduces hunger)
2) Decrease the excitation (a substance that increases the behavior and soothes anxiety)
3) Increasing the excitation (an electronic music concert behavior increases because it stimulates and excites)
4) An environmental element that attracts attention (money reinforces the behavior because people know what money captivating)
5) pleasurable brain stimulation (electrical stimulation of the middle frontal lobe produces high rates response because it is a nice feeling)
6) The opportunity to make a prohibited (the talk is very enhancer, after being silent for a moment)
The advantage lies in knowing what are the stimuli that can be used as reinforcers and why these stimuli ranging behavior.
Nature of reinforcement:
1) The conditions change
2) The effectiveness of reinforcement depends partly on the speed with which he
features a reinforcer:
1) is useful for some individuals but not others
2) The same enhancer is suitable for a subject at a time but inappropriate in another
3) Its intensity may vary
4) The bonuses that managers (parents, teachers, employers, therapists, coaches) expect to increase the behavior, often outside estimate what the recipients as a reinforcer
Effectiveness of a positive reinforcer:
1) Quality
2 ) Immediacy
3) Set person / enhancer
4) Need receiver for the reward in particular
5) Intensity
6) perceived importance of reinforcing the receiver
