Explain how to correct children's bad behavior by strengthening, diluting and punishing.
American psychologist Skinner, the main representative of new behavioral psychology, is one of the founders of behavior correction technology, and reinforcement plays an extremely important role in his behavior learning theory, which is the core of his theory. A series of experiments designed by him can prove that reinforcement can improve the intensity of specific behavior response and play a good role in shaping behavior. Moreover, the younger the subject is, the better the effect will be. Using this principle, we can use this method more in the development of children's behavior habits to shape children's good behavior habits.

Skinner summarized the principle of reinforcement, including reinforcement, punishment and regression, in which reinforcement is divided into positive reinforcement and negative reinforcement.

1. 1 Positive reinforcement: reward

Reward refers to an event that is imposed to increase the probability of a certain behavior after it happens, which belongs to positive reinforcement. Rewards can be divided into material rewards, social rewards and activity rewards. Material rewards are reinforced with consumable items, such as food, pictures, toys, tokens, etc. Social rewards include praise, smile, hug, recognition, touching and so on. Activity reward refers to using some children's favorite activities as reinforcement, such as watching cartoons, sliding slides and playing football. When using rewards, we should pay attention to specific behaviors and let children know what the rewards are for. It is particularly noteworthy that rewards should be appropriate, based on the principle that many rewards are still not satisfied. Uncontrolled praise and reward will easily make children feel vain, conceited and proud, and will not cause teachers or parents to pay attention to and cherish the reward.

1.2 negative reinforcement

Negative reinforcement refers to the withdrawal of aversion to stimuli, thus enhancing the frequency of their behavior. If you behave well, you don't have to endure punishment.

2. Punishment?

In school education, it is generally divided into two categories: one is to apply some painful or disgusting stimulus after bad behavior appears to reduce the possibility of bad behavior happening again; Second, after the occurrence of bad behavior, cancel some kind of stimulation that children like to reduce the possibility of bad behavior happening again. Punishment should be accompanied by reasonable education, which is highly targeted and not targeted at people. Try to avoid punishment and reward immediately. For example, if a student disturbs the class order, the teacher will criticize him, and the probability of bad behavior that disturbs the class will be reduced. But in actual teaching, negative reinforcement and punishment should be used less. Although punishment is also an effective way to correct bad behavior, it is not as effective as reinforcement in shaping behavior, and may bring many negative effects. ?

Gradually disappear

Fading refers to the reaction that the body has made before. If this reaction is not strengthened afterwards, the probability of this reaction will be reduced in the future. For example, children hope to get the satisfaction of their wishes by crying. If they ignore their friends' crying, their unreasonable behavior will be reduced.
