I have just been to Clicker Expo , and even the opening statment showed me something that I had not really thgouht of. The expectation was that in lectures etc ( there were loadsa dogs there) the dogs would not be clicked, as the behavioour would have already been taught. Of course, they would still need to be reinforced. <br />And Kay ( lAurence) did a learning lab , part of which ( I think - didnt attend that) was about settling behaviour - she does not use food for that as it tends to excite the dogs ( I related that one straight to my horses!)<br />And Susan Friedman - A, B ( behaviour) is as a result of C onsequence. Which ahs got me really thinking about all the different secondary ( and nonfood reinforcers) we can utliise - we will know if we have added something in which the horse preceives as a reinforcer, as the behaviour will increase/be correct.<br /><br />So thanks for posting a post, encouraging us to experiment! I look forward to hearing more.<br /><br />hilarychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07344072785508436115noreply@blogger.com
