Operant conditioning is one of the most studied pillars of the behavioral perspective. The term will prove its importance as we begin to explain specific disorders later in the mod. Key words for this construct are positive and negative reinforcement, punishment, extinction, and shaping. It is evident that teachers, coaches, parents, spouses, etc. use the above mentioned key words to achieve a desirable outcome.

Choose one of the keywords, define it in your own words, and explain a time it was utilized in your life. Use resources to support your answer (from both in our course and your own outside research). Discuss with your learning colleagues the value of understanding key words within the field of abnormal psychology and any similarities/differences in your experiences.

Saul Kahneman is a 42-year-old, single white male with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. His current symptoms include auditory hallucinations, disorganized speech, and diminished emotional expression. His father, David, brings Saul to the inpatient psychiatric unit for treatment. David reports that Saul stopped taking his Seroquel 400 mg BID for psychosis and his melatonin 6 mg for sleep a week ago. He also reports that Saul has been responding to internal stimuli, talking to himself, not sleeping, and believes the government has bugged their home. This is the third psychiatric admission for Saul in two years.

When you, the psychiatric nurse practitioner, talk to Saul, he reports, “The medication isn’t working anymore.”

Kenneth Wheeler was angry at certain police officers in Grand Junction, Colorado, because of a driving-under-the-influence arrest that he viewed as unjust. While in Italy, Wheeler posted a statement to his Facebook page urging his "religious followers" to "kill cops, drown them in the blood of their children, hunt them down and kill their entire bloodlines" and provided names. Later, Wheeler added a post to "commit a massacre in the Stepping Stones preschool and day care, just walk in and kill everybody." Could a reasonable person conclude that Wheeler's posts were true threats? How might law enforcement officers use Wheeler's posts? Explain.
