When it is done right! Via explaining and warning that leads to a smack not scolding, the child has to understand what it has done wrong and why that was the consequence. Also the parent has to be consistent all the time, not one day you can the other you can't!

Effectiveness of positive reinforcement in classroom?

Positive reinforcement is very effective in classrooms. If you positively reinforce students in a classroom with anything from 5 mins free time to a tangible reinforcer or even verbal priase you will see an increase in the behaviour you are reinforcing. You must make sure when reinforcing an individual with something that they really and truly want what you are offering. If you do not see a change in the individuals behaviour, they are likely not being effectively reinforced. You can do positive reinforcement methods in classrooms like a Token Economy or individual reinforcement. I would say if you are considering using positive reinforcement techniques in a classroom to do some research on Applied Behaviour Analysis. There is tons of literature on the effectiveness of positive reinforcement and tips and techniques to improve the classroom.

Positive reinforcement is basically rewarding good behavior. Like giving candy for doing chores. Negative reinforcement is the opposite, giving something bad, scolding usually, upon doing something bad. Negative reinforcement acts as a deterrent to bad behavior. These are linked to motivation in the way that you can motivate a child to do something with the idea of a reward afterwards, or the fear of something bad if they don't do it, or do something wrong.

How are positive and negative reinforcement similar and how are they different?

Positive reinforcement is when you reward someone (person, child, pet, etc.) when they do what you want them to, and you ignore them when they do what you don't want them to do. Negative reinforcement, I believe, is when you punish someone for doing what you don't want them to do. As far as their effectiveness, it seems that a combination of both is good. Positive reinforcement is essential, and negative reinforcement helps to round it out. It is, however, important to be careful with negative reinforcement because if you put too much attention on someone while trying to enact the punishment (IE, time out), then, subconsciously, they may enjoy even the negative attention and thus you will have a counterproductive effect.


Does both positive and negative reinforcement increase the frequency of responses?

Yes, both do. Negative reinforcement is quicker but positive reinforcement is more permanent.


Should you give a child soap as discipline?

No, because soap is toxic. Child discipline works better on the positive reinforcement model. Instead of punishing the child (and giving him or her attention for the negative behavior), focus on giving lots of positive reinforcement and attention for good behavior. So, in a situation where you might have expected to hear language you don't approve of--but don't hear it, praise the child exuberantly.
