Discuss the importance of replacement behavior when reducing or eliminating target behavior
What will be an ideal response?
If a problem behavior is to be eliminated or reduced, the practitioner must identify an adaptive replacement behavior and develop contingencies in the intervention plan to ensure the new behavior is learned. This is important because problem behavior serves a function for the client and to eliminate the behavior without replacing it means that access to reinforcement or escape from punishers will be denied.
