A) if, in a given situation, an individual is given a choice of two or more items, the item chosen will be the positive reinforcer
B) if, in a given situation, somebody does something that is immediately followed by a positive reinforcer, then that person is more likely to do the same thing again
C) if, in a given situation, an individual is positively reinforced, then that individual will select that situation in future opportunities
