Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Extinction alone may decrease the occurrence of a behavior, but it may not eliminate it completely. Therefore, it is important to use a stimulus control procedure to prevent the behavior from occurring in the first place. By using a stimulus control procedure, the behavior is only reinforced in the presence of a specific stimulus or situation, which helps to reduce the occurrence of the behavior in other situations.
