Help! Testing in 2 weeks
I am struggling with complex questions for positive/negative reinforcement/punishment! When the questions are easy and straightforward, it's easy to figure out the answer... but when it comes to the longer more trickier questions with multiple moving pieces, I get overwhelmed and end up picking the wrong answer based on my mocks.
Any tips for how to distinguish between what the correct answer is? I know you should pay attention to if the behavior increases or decreases - that means reinforcement or punishment. However, the part that trips me up is deciding if something is positive or negative. I asked ChatGPT to give me a difficult question and it did 😭. Any explanations or tips for breaking down the question? TIA!
(I know my message is all over the place, but I test in 2 weeks and I feel like I should have this concept mastered already)
Example question: A 9-year-old girl named Sophia frequently argues with her little brother over toys. When she argues, her dad usually steps in and makes them share the toy. Over time, Sophia starts arguing more often because she knows her dad will make them share. One day her dad gets tired of it and tells her, “If you argue with your brother again, I’m taking away your tablet for the rest of the day.” Sophia starts arguing less. But when she plays nicely with her brother without arguing, her dad gives her extra praise and lets her choose the next game.
