offering reward when that behaviour is exhibited.
You know, when your son/daughter shows you an A+ for an assignment, you give them
a reward for their achievements.
Hence, when politicians stand in front of a media throng, they will compliment the public
on an outstanding job in obeying their robotic "anti covid" protocols...
AND then, as a reward, the public (insert here "plebs") are promised the rewards of a
watering down of covid restrictions...
It is classic Positive reinforcement...
Firstly, behaviour modification is introduced into the community, and then when
it is deemed appropriate...(perhaps after learned helplessness is exhibited to an extent...)
surprise surprise...rewards by way of positive reinforcement are announced....
AND of course, theres negative reinforcement, where governments threaten the plebs with fines
if they dont conform to the draconian rules...
AND then theres the actual punishment..the imposition of that fine...(not to be confused
with negative reinforcement....)
ARE you bored yet....
Dont be....
Because just around the corner we have a government advertising campaign which will centre
on the persuasion of the masses....it wont be informative, nor will it suggest that
you "think about" getting the vaccine....
It will extoll the virtues of the vaccine.....
BUT its "not a silver bullet..."
