⩥ What kind of reinforcer is drying of hands with a towel when
they are wet if drying hands increases in the future?
Answer: Negative Reinforcer
⩥ When is adding a prompt to the shaping process something to

,⩥ Reinforcement is a ______________ while a reinforcer is a

What behavior produced the token and potentially be
reinforced?
Answer: copying his neighbors work
