Running head: EXTINCTION 1 Behavior Extinction Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation

EXTINCTION 2 Summarize information from the textbooks with citations. The term "extinction" refers to the situation in which a behavior no longer occurs after being deprived of reward for a certain amount of time (Miltenberger, 2016). Extinction bursts and spontaneous recovery are two names for the impacts of extinction that might allow a behavior to reappear after the reinforcement has been withdrawn. Both of these phenomena are caused by the process of extinction (Cooper, 2020). An increase in the frequency, intensity, or duration of a behavior after it has been unreinforced is what is known as an extinction burst. On the other hand, spontaneous recovery is when the behavior will occur in a situation that is comparable to the one in which it occurred prior to the occurrence of extinction (Miltenberger, 2016). According to Cooper (2020), extinction is associated with actions that are automatically reinforced, favorably reinforced, and negatively reinforced. For behaviors that are being positively rewarded, the reinforcement will no longer be provided. For actions that are rewarded in a negative way, the unpleasant stimulus is no longer eliminated. Last but not least, for actions that are automatically rewarded, eliminating the penalty or masking it with something else may help (Cooper, 2020). The likelihood that a behavior will continue to occur throughout the extinction process is increased by the presence of reinforcement; but, if reinforcement is eliminated, the frequency of the activity will decrease.

EXTINCTION 3 Before Extinction: Antecedent Behavior Reinforcing Consequence Every time we go to the store, my daughter demands that I buy her either a toy or a piece of candy. She tears after repeatedly asking if she can have a toy or sweets, which she is not given, and then begs again and again if she may have one. We offer her a toy or a piece of candy to settle her down. Extinction Procedure Antecedent Behavior Extinction Procedure Effect on Future Responding Every time we go to the store, my daughter demands that I buy her either a toy or a piece of candy. She tears after repeatedly asking if she can have a toy or sweets, which she is not given, and then begs again and again if she may have one. We choose to ignore her repeated requests for a toy or sweets as well as her weeping and instead focus our attention on reinforcing good conduct while we are at the shop. When we went to the store, my daughter finally stopped asking for a toy or sweets every single time. Before Extinction: Antecedent Behavior Reinforcing Consequence At the supermarket, the parent says "no" to the child's request to buy a chocolate bar. The child thrashes about on the ground and shrieks in distress. The chocolate bar is placed in the shopping basket by the parent. Extinction Procedure Antecedent Behavior Extinction Procedure Effect on Future Responding At the supermarket, the parent says "no" to the child's request to buy a chocolate bar. The child thrashes about on the ground and shrieks in distress. The parent chooses to disregard the kid's conduct and sticks to their decision not to give the youngster a chocolate bar. The youngster will scream The youngster will ignore the candy section as they pass it and will not ask for any chocolate.

EXTINCTION 4 more as a result of this (a phenomenon known as extinction burst), but with time, the behavior will become less severe.
