Reinforcement and Punishment

Social learning theory postulates that gender development is influenced by social environment, which includes the media. An individual’s gender-related behavior is either reinforced or punished during the development period based on the existing social beliefs and standards.

The following assignment will help you examine gender development from the perspective of both boys and girls based on today’s culture and with a look toward future trends.

Using the module readings, the online library resources, and the Internet, research social learning theory and gender development during childhood.

Applying the tenets of the social learning theory, explain the role of reinforcement and punishment in gender-related behaviors for boys and girls. Address the following:

Identify 3–5 examples of gender-related behaviors that are developed through reinforcement or punishment. Be sure to provide a balanced view for boys and girls, and select examples which apply to the development of both boys and girls.

Explain, in detail, how these behaviors have been shaped by reinforcement and punishment.

Describe your own experiences with reinforcement and punishment of gender-related behaviors.

Comment on the following:

Explain the role of popular culture in the development of reinforcements and punishments.

Describe what reinforcements and punishments might look like in the future, given current societal trends.

Support your assertions using valid research. Be sure to integrate a reflection of your personal experiences and examples throughout your paper.

Describe the development of the Spartacus story, from the Roman version, as we encounter it in Plutarch, to the version in Kubrick's film from 1960. In addition to touching on the Roman and the Kubrick Spartacus, the beginning and end points, you must discuss three of the following five intermediate versions: the French Spartacus, Bird's play of 1831, Giovagnoli's novel of 1874, the Vidali film of 1913, Fast's novel of 1951. You should discuss not only changes in plot or emphasis, but the possible reasons for those changes. Rereading parts (if not all) of Wyke's chapter will probably be helpful to you.

Gender Stereotypes

The perspective with which you view gender can influence both your experience of it and its respective psychology. When you extend your understanding of the psychology of your gender beyond your own experiences, you will begin to fully comprehend the concept of gender and its impact.

Gender stereotypes are often expressed publicly but experienced personally. This assignment will challenge you to think beyond your personal lens and consider the experiences and impact of gender stereotypes from the perspective of the opposite gender.

Using the module readings, the online library resources, and the Internet, research gender stereotypes. Select three authoritative resources to support your responses, one for each of the questions that follow.

Based on your research, respond to the following:

How has scientific research influenced gender stereotypes of the opposite gender?

Which stereotypes of the opposite gender cause the most damage in a child’s perception of his or her future abilities and why?

Which stereotypes have lessened over the years for the opposite gender?

Right for the Customer or Right for the Salesperson?

Introduction

This case abstract is representative of a real-world scenario. Jack was a very successful salesperson for International Business Machines (IBM), a major computer company, and was considered by his peers and customers to maintain the highest level of ethical behaviors. IBM has a highly regarded reputation in the computer industry for ethical behaviors toward customers. The company has a strict code of conduct policy regarding employee behaviors related to customer and takes steps to insure employees are aware of the code of conduct and comply with the code. This awareness by employees, especially salespeople, should insure a commitment on the part of salespeople to interface ethically with customers.

Research suggests that such codes, ethical cultures, and ethical expectations contribute to a social network in which each member (salespeople and customers) are committed to acting in the best interest (at least not acting in a harmful way) of other members in the social network. In his first five years in a sales territory, Jack had consistently exceeded his year sales quotas, earned high compensation bonuses for his sales attainment, and had qualified for sales recognition events by the company each year. In his sixth year in the sales territory, however, Jack was faced with an unusual customer situation that had implications for the customer’s ultimate satisfaction with both the product Jack was selling and with Jack’s company.

Scenario

Toward the end of the year, Jack had exceeded his annual sales goals to the extent that he qualified for a level of compensation bonuses tied to his annual sales attainment. During the latter part of September, a salesperson from a computer forms company let Jack know that one of the computer-forms salesperson’s customers was getting ready to purchase a business computer system from a competitor of Jack’s company. Jack immediately called the prospect and set up an appointment.

During the first appointment with the owner in late September, Jack found that the prospect was getting ready to purchase the competitor’s system, but before doing so, wanted to see Jack’s proposal. Jack also discovered that the competitive system with necessary software was priced around $30,000, which the owner indicated was his company’s budget for the automation project. Jack was somewhat discouraged in that he could not offer a system for that price, but did come back the next day to complete a survey of the prospect’s automation needs. Based on the survey, Jack thought that the prospect would need a small central computer with five attached workstations; three displays/keyboards and two desktop printers. The three workstations would be placed in accounting, the order department, and in the warehouse. One printer would be in the accounting office for daily bookkeeping and one printer would be in the order department/warehouse. Additionally, Jack found that the prospect was projecting additional growth in the business around 100 percent over the next two years. A major factor in the prospect’s decision was that the computer network had to be delivered and installed by the end of the year. Jacks major concern was not only the prospect’s low budget, but also the required delivery timeframe that Jack could not meet with any of his company’s current products.

Jack’s Actions

During the week, as Jack was about the give up on the prospect due to the prospect’s low budget and delivery requirement, Jack’s company announced a new business computer that seemed to meet Jack’s prospect’s requirements. The new computer consisted of a small, limited capacity computer that would accommodate up to five workstations in any combination of displays/keyboards and desktop printers, had a price under $30,000 and could be delivered in two months. Jack immediately configured a product solution for the prospect consisting of the business computer, three workstations, and two desktop printers that had a total price of around $32,000 including the application software for the prospect’s business. Jack realized that his proposed business computer fit the prospect’s current business requirements, but would not be able to accommodate any future growth. Jack, however, decided to go ahead and present the proposal to the prospect but not inform the prospect that the proposed product solution was limited to only current needs.

The Results

The prospect liked Jack’s proposal as compared to Jack’s competitor’s proposal, and placed an order for the business computer and software. Jack left the customer’s office very satisfied because the last minute sale put him in the next tier for bonuses for sales attainment. This sale represented an extra $1000 in commission on the sale. All went well. The business computer was delivered and installed in December. Then there was good news and bad news. The good news was that Jack’s product solution perfectly met the customer’s current needs and the customer was delighted. Then the bad news came. On the first business day of January, the customer called Jack, told him how happy he was with the product, and informed Jack that he wished to move up his anticipated growth schedule and immediately add additional workstations (displays/keyboards and printers). At this point, Jack panicked knowing that the product he had sold to the customer was at its maximum capacity and could not accommodate the customer’s growth plan, but thinking he had one or two years to address the additional growth with another product solution. The customer expects Jack to set up an appointment as soon as possible to place an order for the additional workstations.

The Issue

What should Jack do? Jack realized he could be in trouble with both the customer and with his company. The customer would probable realize the company had purchased a business system that could not expand to keep up as transaction volumes increased the business grew rapidly over the next few years. Jack’s company identified such sales behavior as violating the company’s policies and grounds for dismissal.

Questions for Discussion

1. Was Jack’s action ethical? Why or why not?

2. What factors (both internal and external) possibly led to Jack’s situation with the customer?

3. What actions do you think Jack should take? Should Jack discuss the situation with his immediate manger? How should Jack approach the customer?
