Document Summary
Routines: set things that always happen before bed. Extinction: withholding/discontinuing reinforcement for a previously reinforced behavior: e. g. child cries go to comfort child, instead child cries let them cry. Extinction burst: happens right after implementation of extinction, might see an increase in behavior. Similar to extinction, but the amount of attention is faded out gradually rather than all at once: e. g. baby cries, wait 5 minutes, then comfort, leave. Baby cries wait 10 minutes, then comfort, leave. Child given a pass prior to going to bed (1x use: e. g. allowed to get out of bed once during night for a set amount of time. A procedure that is used to teach children a behavior by breaking down that behavior into discrete, individual behaviors: e. g. get tooth(cid:271)rush, put o(cid:374) tooth paste, u(cid:374)der (cid:449)ater, (cid:271)rush top right, top left, (cid:271)otto(cid:373) . Replacing tantrums with a chain of more pleasurable, low intensity, bedtime appropriate beahviors.
