Once you are done, review the posts of other learners and engage in two responses to a learner, or learners, in any discussion board prompt; you may respond to the same learner twice in a conversation.
Your responses should be substantive and demonstrate your understanding of the material. In this, and in all of your courseroom posts, be sure to keep your tone respectful and professional. Use the name of the peer you are addressing. Cite any references according to APA guidelines.
Week 9, Discussion Prompt Option 1
Real Life
Verbal behavior occurs all around us. How many of the basic verbal operants did you engage in today? What were they?
For example:
Today, I ordered a coffee (mand) because I was tired (EO) and the barista delivered that coffee (specific reinforcement). I was able to tact âcinnamonâ (nonverbal SD) that I tasted in the coffee. The barista asked me what I had planned for the weekend (verbal SD) to which I responded âcatching up on laundry!â (verbal response without point-to-point correspondence). The barista advised I check out an event and she stated the website, which I wrote down (transcriptive).
