Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fine-tuning her behavior modification program would involve adjusting the timing of the reinforcement to decrease the delay between the behavior and the reinforcement. Giving up or depending on weaker reinforcers would not effectively address the problem of delayed reinforcement. Sucking it up and keep trying may not necessarily lead to improvement if the delay persists.
