If the child is a teen you're not going to be able to shape him into being a good choicemaker. A professional could help. With a younger child, it is easy. You find what he likes, and you remove it from him, or withhold it, when he doesn't perform the desired behavior. Answer People frequently mis-use the term "Classical Conditioning". The contributor above has described some of the basic elements of what is called "Operant Conditioning", and that is probably what you were asking about. You would not want to use Classical Conditioning on a child. I'm not sure that there would even be a way to do it that would give you results that you want. Classical Conditioning involves pairing an "unconditioned response", like salivation when given food, or the iris of the eye getting smaller when expose to stronger light, to a "conditioned stimulus", like the sounding of a bell. Think Pavlov. Repeatedly ring a bell just when you give food to a hungry dog. If you get the timing right, the dog will salivate when you ring the bell.
What else can I help you with?
How do you classically condition a child to not run across the busy street and more?
Classical conditioning a child involves pairing the undesirable behavior (running across the street) with a negative consequence (like a stern warning or a timeout). You can also pair the behavior with a positive consequence (praise or rewards) when the child follows safe behavior. Consistency and repetition are key to reinforcing the desired behavior.
What is cognitive useful?
works to decrease impulsive behavior by getting the child to recognize the connection between thoughts and behavior, and to change behavior by changing negative thinking patterns.

Examples of classical and operant conditioning?

What did john Watson want to prove with the little Albert experiment?
John Watson wanted to demonstrate the principles of classical conditioning by showing that fear could be conditioned in a child (Little Albert) through association with a loud noise (unconditioned stimulus). The experiment aimed to prove that emotions and behavior could be manipulated through conditioning.

How do you learn behaviors through classical and operant conditioning?
Classical conditioning involves learning through association, where a neutral stimulus becomes linked to an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a conditioned response. For example, if a dog hears a bell before being fed, it may salivate at the sound of the bell alone. Operant conditioning, on the other hand, involves learning through consequences, where behaviors are strengthened or weakened based on reinforcement or punishment. For instance, a child who receives praise for cleaning their room is more likely to repeat that behavior in the future.
Example of conditioning?
In the context of psychology, conditioning refers to a learning process in which a behavior becomes more or less likely to occur as a result of reinforcement or punishment. For example, in classical conditioning, a dog salivating at the sound of a bell after being repeatedly paired with food. In operant conditioning, a child earning a sticker for completing chores and then being more likely to complete chores in the future.
What are the signs of ADD?
