Additional Book Details

An important way to initiate new behavior is to prompt it. Most are familiar with the use of instructions, directions, and written reminders to prompt new behavior, but behavioral research has documented ways of making prompts work better at guiding behavior that teachers, parents, coaches, managers, and administrators want to promote. Once the behavior occurs, it is necessary to reinforce or select it so that it continues to occur in the absence of prompts. A well-crafted prompt can establish the behavior very quickly and easily. This book presents a program designed to help instructors and students to become more skillful in using this powerful instructional tool.
