Problem:
Using the principles of operant conditioning (punishment; reinforcement) as discussed in Chapter 1 of Spencer A. Rathus- HDEV 6 (HUMAN LIFESPAN DEVELOPMENT) textbook as your primary source, "apply" operant conditioning principles to make recommendations to a parent dealing with their 2-year-old's temper tantrum to get a cookie in the grocery store.
The child would most likely continue to use temper tantrums to get his way if the parent gives in to the child. What do you think?
