According to a Behaviorist approach, list and explain four methods teachers can use to reduce and eliminate undesirable behaviors.



a. Extinction: one way of reducing the frequency of an inappropriate response is simply to make sure it is never reinforced.
b. Cueing inappropriate behaviors: cue the children about what they should not be doing, using body language, physical proximity, or verbal cue.
c. Reinforcing incompatible behaviors: reduce the frequency of unproductive behavior by simply reinforcing an alternative behavior.
d. Punishment: punishment is a consequence that decreases the frequency of the response it follows; it could be verbal reprimands, response cost, logical consequence, taking a break, or in-school suspension.
