1.Skinner emphasized a scientific approach to the study of behavior, in part, because individual behavior is so unique. Understanding what the average person might do may tell us nothing about a certain individual. However, a science of personality that treats everyone as unique seems to become hopelessly complex, because we must study everyone individually. Does this really seem like a scientific approach, and whether it is or not, can it really help us to understand other people? Provide an example that illustrates the use of operant conditioning to shape your own personality. Can the same principles that shaped your personality be generalized to understanding the personality of others?

What questions, comments to you have about the experiences (150-250 Words)
My experience regarding love and intimate relationships is based on how I was raised by my family and traditions of American culture. Growing up, I always saw the family unit as a man and woman who made a commitment to each other, set goals together and would eventually have a family. Generationally, things are different now compared to when I married my husband. Today we have people identifying more with heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, lesbian, gay, and transgender as well as interracial and interethnic relationships and marriages. Many girls dream about marrying someday, however, many people today are holding off getting married or choosing not to marry at all. When my husband and I chose to get married, we wanted to spend the rest of our lives making each other happy, have a family, and grow old together. We have watched our three children grow into amazing young adults and will be celebrating 25 years of marriage on New Years Day.

Should Parents Pay Their Children When They Earn High Grades in School?
We all probably recall knowing someone in school who got $5 for every “A” they earned in school. Research has found that encouragement of autonomous functioning, individual challenge, and positive feedback stimulates an intrinsic motivation to achieve (Deci & Ryan, 1985). If the environment is highly controlling, however, the internal forces for mastery-achievement may be undermined. Parents who use surveillance and frequent rewards socialize their children to be motivated by, and desire, extrinsic rewards. Two specific parenting behaviors were related to extrinsic motivation and lower school performance. They found that over controlling parents (those who engaged in extreme supervision of homework completion) had children who were more likely to rely on external sources for evaluation. Their grades and achievement scores were lower as well. Parents who relied on external rewards also had children with extrinsic motivation and lower school performance. Ginsburg and Bronstein speculate that extrinsically rewarded children use external criteria to assess their performance, which alters the children’s perception of themselves. This may undermine their ability to self-regulate and choose appropriate work. These children do not learn how to judge their own performance. Encouragement of intrinsic motivation, which is bidirectional and reciprocal, will foster independent self-evaluation and academic success. The goal is for the child to develop the ability to self-regulate and take responsibility for academic success; thus, the parents are not solely responsible for their child’s outcome. So, does paying our children for good grades motivate them to do well in school? Do you see how these children are not able to learn how to judge their own performance? Elaborate. What are some ways that parents can foster the development of intrinsic motivation?
