Select a behavioural deficit and Outline a complete shaping program that you, with help of someone close to you (e.g., spouse, friend, etc.), might use to overcome that deficit. In order to ensure that your program follows the guidelines for effective shaping include the following:

a. Identify the current behavioural deficit

b. Identify the final target behaviour

c. Identify an appropriate reinforcer

d. List at least 2 approximations of the final target behavior (not including the initial behavioral deficit or the final target behavior)

e. Discuss how you will reinforce the first approximation and how you will decide to move on to the second approximation

f. Once targeting the second approximation, discuss how you'll handle the first approximation , how you will reinforce the second approximation

g. Discuss how you will determine that the final target behaviour has been reached
