Skinner Absence of reinforcement, or extinction, also decreases
behavior by withholding a reward that has become habitual.
Teachers employ this strategy in the classroom when they
ignore acting-out behavior that had previously been
rewarded by more attention.
Skinner's behavior model provides a concrete method for
modifying or replacing behaviors. Behavior management and
modification programs based on his principles have shown to
be successful in altering targeted behaviors. Programmed
learning and token economies represent extensions of
Skinner's thoughts on learning. Behavioral methods are
particularly effective with children, adolescents, and
individuals with many forms of chronic mental illness.
