In differential reinforcement procedures, problem behaviors are put on what?

  1. Extinction

  2. Time-out

  3. Reinforcement

  4. Increase

The correct answer is: Extinction

Differential reinforcement procedures involve reinforcing desired behaviors while withholding reinforcement for undesired behaviors. This can be done through extinction, which involves completely ignoring the problem behavior, or through time-out, which involves temporarily removing access to reinforcement. Both options B and C are incorrect because differential reinforcement procedures do not involve reinforcing problem behaviors or increasing their frequency.
